If they just care about one title, why don't they buy just that title?
When you can buy a movie for $20 that's not bad.
When you're watching a season of a newish show, that's often closer to $100. A tv show with 5 disks often likes to pretend it's worth 5 movies. Also the latest content is often not available on disk until well after it's "aired"
Why should they?
Jokes aside the first two for sure - but yeah, they could also just sail the high seas and it would be a similar outcome.
