I've been sitting on this link for about a week
Say Goodbye to Big Screen Classics. Summary: Erosion of the DVD Market + Recession + Lowered expectations because of shit box sets from the past = not so many Classic films getting DVD releases from the big studios.
While this is bad news on the surface, I have to wonder what this means for alternate distributors. For instance, Paramount might not be willing to release something but would they potentially let the Criterions, Kinos, Flicker Alleys, or (**gulp**) Alphas release it? Or are they just waiting to see if Warner Archives will work?
