Could the reason DVD sales have dropped so much simply be that Hollywood has released the back catalog of films?
My guess is when DVDs first became the craze there were only a handful of titles, as more titles were added people bought more - often going out to buy their favorites and classics for the sake of nostalgia. In this way Hollywood was making money by just re-releasing a lot of old content.
Now that all that 'catching up' has occurred and customers have already gone out and bought their favorite films, only new releases remain - and those are either a. underwhelming or b. not yet 'classic' status enough to bother owning.
