I dunno, DVD from 2001 to 2004 was twice as crowded as that, and SW and Indy both managed to do okay.

 What are you talking about?

All of those are coming out from October to December of this one year.  I'm not talking about several years.

 I know, I meant the Christmas season of every year from 2001 to 2004 had huge boxsets and long-awaited special editions of classic films. Pretty much every major catalog title came out on a special edition in that time, including all boxset releases.

But you are right in one thing in that the marketplace was different. There were a million DVD owners back then, but not nearly as much Blu Ray owners now, so there's not as many buyers in proportion to titles. I guess we'll have to wait and see.
