[MacDV] Direct to DVD release

[Gerhard Kuhn]

So would paying for the content be considered to be part of profit?  I 
believe that the actual production cost of packaging and the disk is not 
much more than one dollar.  But you have to pay the production studio 
(engineers to the guy that sweeps the floor), the trucker, the 
warehouse, the marketing campaign, the artists and the retailer before 
you get it in your hands.  So comparing a the cost of a blank DVD to one 
that has content that you want to sit down and watch makes no sense!
