EZ-D (what a bad name) flops

Well, the self-destructing DVDs seem to be a flop. It’s been a month since they’ve been in test markets, and the majority of stores seem to not be selling them.

I can’t say I’m surprised. Afterall, I wouldn’t buy one. Pay $7 for a DVD that will die 48 hours after opening it? No way, I can rent for much cheaper than that, and I can buy many DVD’s for $10-$12, and watch them as many times as I want. Maybe if I had a DVD burner, and could copy them, it might be worth it, but probably not. If they were priced competitively with rentals, then I’d consider it.

Remind anyone of DivX?
