Really? Are they holding a gun to your head? Is your family being held ransom? I don't see studios forcing anyone to buy anything. Please, continue with the hyperbole, as you have been for ages.

Managed Copy is a nice idea on paper - but studios are - apparently - more comfortable adding separate digital copies to the discs (which are free, btw - in case you were wondering).

Besides, it was always assumed using the Managed Copy function would cost more to the consumer (the studios weren't going to let you copy the movie for free, regardless of format). In other words, studios would have been making money from Managed Copy, and - in your words - would have forced the consumer to buy multiple copies of the same movie.

lol.
