It seems this would conflict with their streaming "Prime" service, and a lot of these streaming services apparently tend to edit old movies or not bother with them at all. I wondered if this was causing a slight "rarity" factor with old MGM dvds, which I've noticed a few titles that seem hard to come by are issued by this studio, and if this was the reason why? I can't see Amazon going out of their way to manufacture physical discs, and even a search on ebay for 4K MGM seems only to produce a handful of titles - mainly Rocky, or a couple of recent James Bond movies. Anecdotally, when I'm in a charity shop which has a couple of hundred or so DVDs on shelves, only about one or two in that hundred will be MGM releases. Edited by moderator on 13th Jan 2024, 9:23 PM
