From The NY Times, concerning Kill Bill:
“This is the beauty of having two volumes, Vol. 1 goes out, Vol. 2 goes out, then Vol. 1 Special Edition, Vol. 2 Special Edition, the two-pack, then the Tarantino collection as a boxed set out for Christmas. It’s called multiple bites at the apple. And you multiply this internationally.”
— Rick Sands, Chief Operating Officer, Miramax
WTF! Everyone knows why movie studios do this kind of shit, but you have to be massively stupid to say it in a public forum. The article is talking about how movie studios are employing techniques like this to recoup costs from piracy … WTF! It is tactics like this that promote piracy. Argh!
