When a bookstore buys a book from a distributor (middle man) it
typically pays 60% of list price plus shipping. If these (wholesale)
prices are distributor selling prices then the retail would be about 30
and 40 respectively.

I figure add 50% and subtract 25%, so a 24 dollar new release would be
about 36 dollars sticker minus 9 dollars at bb, cc, etc. So you get it
on opening week for 27 bucks.

-- if that's the case, with the possibility of mandatory network
connections, I'll just be stuck with the 14.99 to 17.99 first week
prices for the regular DVDs.
