The wonder that is Amazon offers it in widescreen VHS and, more importantly, claims that by adding names to a DVD wait list effectively “votes” for the release.

This might be a good dual-track strategy along with the keen direct lobbying of the website. In fact, I’d find someone at Wal-Mart to lobby as well. It has the power to get the DVD pressed tomorrow.

As you might tell, this shift in media matters is fascinating to me and it is covered in great detail at the Long Tail blog, which is based on idea that the long “forgotten” tail of movies, music, etc. holds tremendous value to consumers if consumers can get at the stuff.
