Did anyone read this article on Den of Geek?

Falling DVD & Blu-ray sales, and an era passing | Den of Geek

Generally i like the writing on the site but this is uninformed bollocks. How can you believe someone who says only 8-10 new dvds/blus get released each week?

I've just looked at HMV's releases for next week and counted 21 individual titles on the first page alone. Not Rogue One on blu, Rogue One on dvd, Rogue One as a single title. There are three pages of new releases next week and a similar three this week. 8-10 new titles a week - idiot!

Basing his whole article about a couple of indie films that struck streaming deals before retail then blatantly lying about the amount of new releases each week as proof that companies aren't releasing as much as they once did. he even had to edit his article as one of his case studies did come out on dvd/blu a short while later.
