I think you are looking at this the right way tom.
Most people on this board are dvd collectors and movie aficionados who plan their year around the DVD release schedule. It is difficult for us to step outside of ourselves and see it from an objective stance(I even chimed in with my negative comments). I think we forget that we are not necessarily the consensus anymore. Everyone has a DVD player these days...And most of these people are not as well informed and have no idea when a movie is released. So for them the 6-week waiting period will have little to no effect. And like you said, alot of people have a tendency to rack up late fees so for them this would be an ideal solution.
In short, this is may not necessarily be a bad idea, but for the dvd-holics, it flys in the face of all reason.
