For those of you who have had a movie available via Netflix, how many DVD's does Netflix ask for in their initial order? How many ADDITIONAL DVD's did they order later on?
I don't buy into that thinking. NetFlix needs to start paying royalties. They are laughing all the way to the bank by buying only 60 copies for the entire nation. Just look at their stock performance.That's just the facts of the way independent filmmaking works. However, you're supposed to use those 60 DVD's, that Netflix streaming 3rd page, to get noticed and make your next one bigger and more comfortable, if that's what you're looking to do.

No home video rental chain or store pays royalties on each rental of a DVD or Blu Ray.
The big studios probably worked out a special deal with NetFlix because it's not fair that NetFlix covers the entire country with a relatively small quantity of DVD copies.Is that also true of Netflix and the big Hollywood studios? What's the deal between them?
