Why are full screen DVDs more expensive than their widescreen counterparts?

There will be dual releases, a 16:9 version and a scope version eventually. count on it. If you need proof, just look at our weekly dozen black bar threads

Why would that be so?

The MAJORITY of DVD's are viewed on 4:3 TV's

vs.

The MAJORITY of Blu-Ray's which are viewed on 16:9 HDTV's therefore there should be ZERO demand for such an idiotic product on the Blu-Ray side.

There is NO good reason for dual releases on Blu-Ray to EVER come out.

And besides... the Studios don't want them either:

A) They won't lose any sales by not having them because the people that want full screen don't have Blu-Ray's or HDTV's to begin with

B) They will save TONS of money by not having to master produce and distribute 2 different versions of the same movie.
