Read the whole article. It is enlightening. According to Nielsen DVD sales are off 9%. That is approx $1.4 billion. I can see why the studios are worried as there is no way Blu-Ray and downloads are going to make up that loss unless they have a massive Q4.

Do or die seems more like positioning yet again from the studios. Especially when you read Universal's comments in the article which are definitely not doom and gloom.
