in 13.5m they include Rental sales also. i m not sure if 1.7m contains rental... So 12.6% is minimum.. could be above 15%.

Pretty good if you ask me.

by rental sales do you mean blockbuster buying like 50 of them? If so then I'm pretty sure 1.7 includes blockbuster buying blu-rays too... but the blockbuster by me only carries like 2 of the same title blu-rays

It should also be noted, that these sales - just like with games - are "shipped" figures, basically sales to any stores that stock DVD/BluRay movies. They do NOT represent sales to consumers.

And number one on the itunes chart.

Do we have access to that chart by the way? It'd be interesting to see how big the digitial distribution side of things are right now.

I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.
