Not impossible but a pretty big turn off - you have to pay per episode - no bulk deals. This makes for instance releasing anime series far more expensive in the UK than elsewhere.
As for the question of success that's not for me to answer but I've been nagging them to release it for years now (rightly, they ignore me!) and I'm just glad they've put their toe in the water and it's coming out.
Compared to the NTV tapes of the 90s with two episodes per tape for £12.99 (and a dirty look from the staff of Glasgow Tower Records to boot) I'd say the box sets are better value! Talking of which I might go stick in a disc now!
