Wow! I'm glad we have someone on here as fucking smart as
you are. I'm quite sure that over 100,000 copies of a DVD
release are packaged by "idiots that put the disc in the
package". I guess a large corporation like Warner probably
wouldn't think to use an automated assembly line for
pressing and packaging DVD's. Also, I'll bet "the handling
between warehouse and your door" is vastly different than
the handling between a warehouse and the retailer.

By the way, changing your username on here every 6 months
doesn't fool anybody in this group.

You should change it back to Roy L. Fucks.
