Variety: 'Avatar' shatters DVD, Blu-ray record →

I can’t believe (after 4 days of US availability) that the ratio of DVD to Blu-ray sales is 60/40. That is massive.

Less than 24 hours after the NRL sanctions were announced, major sponsors were tearing their labels from Storm jerseys. A once lucrative piece of sports apparel is now, in commercial terms, a gaudy purple wash rag. Ooh burn. Now they really do just look like those jerks from Globo Gym. Can’t wait to see Blade, Lazer and Blazer take on the Warriors tomorrow.

popculturebrain: Apparently, in an effort to ensure not even one dollar is lost to dreaded pirates, Fox has added a DRM code that is rendering some DVDs of Avatar unplayable on Blu-ray. Oh snap. What good is selling 1.5 million if they don’t work. DRM is d-r-dumb. The retail Blu-Ray rip of Avatar appeared last night (Friday morning US time). So… that worked out great. Edit: The article...

In a press conference held in Sydney, David Gallop handed down the penalty against the Victoria-based club for running two sets of books of paying players outside the salary cap. BIGGEST NEWS EVER. I was only joking about them being...

LeagueHQ: Storm backed for wooden spoon, NRL... →

When the bookies start shortening odds, you know something’s up. The NRL has been investigating a third-party agreement between Storm captain Cameron Smith and FoxSports. Under salary cap rules, third-party agreements do not count under the salary cap as long as the club played no part in negotiating the deal. The deal has been queried as the Storm is wholly owned by News Ltd and FoxSports...
