Streaming seems to of hit both, personally I think 4K is dead in the water before it's really even started.
Yeah, I was discussing the issue with Simeon Halligan who runs Grimmfest and directed white settlers. He's trying to get a label off the ground but he's found its easier to get films out on Blu-ray in Germany and America than it is in the UK. They backed the underrated Some guy who kills people for instance and it took a bath on sales. This is why I always try to buy the UK releases where possible so long as they are similar quality. I don't give two shits about sleeve art, logos ect just the content (with one or two exceptions) as this is my personal preference I'm happy to support the UK side of things.

People can have their own opinion on how labels operate, but when you look at the numbers we're so lucky to have labels like Arrow, 88 Films and Shameless. It doesn't seem to be the easiest of businesses to break into and I respect, and appreciate, anyone giving it a go. It's why I have a modicum of respect for the loon that runs Code Red. People get into this for their love of film.

As much as I have digs at Bill Olsen I've never derided the quality of the actual product which I've always been happy with. In fact a lot of the anger stems from people actually wanting the releases and not being able to get them.

At the moment, never. It seems to be a growing trend over here, blu-ray & dvd releases in the States and other countries, and dvd only in the UK.
