Warner Bros. has announced that they will do their best Disney impression and soon take Harry Potter films out of distribution and into a "vault" of sorts.
On December 29th, the studio will stop shipping copies of all 8 movies in the historic franchise.
The studio will release the films again in the future as special re-release editions, likely with a higher price tag.

Not that I care, I don't buy DVDs, but still I can't believe the greed these companies have. And then they wonder why people download movies from internet. <curses the people who come up with crap like this>

And here I thought George Lucas had the market cornered on this practice with the star wars films, go figure. How many dips has he taken with that franchise, too many to count I think.
If your fish seems sick, put it back in the water.

The market could change by the time they decide to re release them.
And what do they mean by "limited" what more could they add to them, crappy deleted scenes and unfinished animated sequences???
I ain't gonna buy them! I've already seen them all!

They usually mean "sold for a limited time" or "in a limited number", which is of course BS. I mean, Disney also released all the animated classics "for a limited time", and they are still in the shops 10+ years later.

God this is such BS. They are just forcing people to burn and DL the movies. Way to go on giving the consumer just what they don't want.

Never been much of a medieval fan. My 29 year old daughter will be appalled!
Disney has been putting their, "classics" in the vault since the VHS days. I suppose Disney feels like there movies have some elite status and will bring mucho duckets when they are re-released.

these back-in-the-vault shenanigans are quite loathsome. i really wish there was a stipulation that, in order to be protected by copyright, the item must be available. of course, they w/could just say, "hey, this $50 dvd is available" or something similar. another pathetic attempt to extract revenue for the umpteenth time. the way i see it, if i buy something once in any format, i own the viewing license for all future formats.

While I am inclined to agree with this line of thinking (because I do), something tells me it wouldn't hold up legally...

Wow! They're just begging us to torrent now! Their scheme isn't even clever, it's so obvious what they're doing. How can the general public of this country find such things entirely acceptable?!
