Blog Question: The Network vs. DVD’s

By Scott Keith on 11 January 2014

With all the talk about how the WWE Network is gonna kill PPV revenue, I haven't heard anyone address how it's gonna affect their DVD revenue. Do you think this is gonna dissuade most folks from plunking down $20 for each of their DVD/Blu-ray releases, since most (or all) of that content is now gonna be available on the Network? Thanks for your input.

Yeah, well, Thor might be available on Netflix six months after the fact, but that didn't dissuade me from buying the Blu-Ray, ya know? Streaming services will never replace collectible hard media for the type of people, such as myself, who still want a shelf full of STUFF in their man-cave. I wouldn't worry about the DVD market.
