Rifftrax MOD discs
I know that physical media is a drag for all concerned...except for me and a lot of other people, so nevermind what I just started out saying. I understand the expense of getting factory made DVDs and there's also the risk that these discs will gather dust in your storage rather than getting out on the street. I love VODs, but I'm lazy to burn discs and would prefer getting these films in a physical antiquated disc form.
So I was wondering if it was ever on the table to do like Warner Archive or the Universal Vault and have Rifftrax Made-On-Demand dvd-rs? I don't know if this is a question of rights, but if the rights holders are cool with VODs and that fans are burning these anyway or downloading to burn later, I cannot imagine they would be bent out of shape about MOD discs.
At any rate, I think there's a paying audience out there. And you already know that there is profit on the deal as the only time you're making the discs is when someone orders them. They wouldn't be a storage issue or gathering dust in a closet. (Man, that's a lot of dust by you guys as I've used that analogy twice now since I cannot think of another parallel.) I would gladly pay for a DVD-R of House on Sorority Row or Miami Connection or whatever VOD comes out of the RIfftrax factory.
Just thought I would put that idea out there as another possible source for a incoming revenue stream.
Thank you,
