sindikatas Posted June 24, 2017 Report Posted June 24, 2017 Regarding DVDs, it wouldn't happen not only because it's too expensive but also because I believe DVDs are more of the 00s thing whereas paying for downloading of episodes is not that bad and I would definately pay for it. It would be much cheaper because one wouldn't have to pay for the packaging and discs.
Skylover Posted June 25, 2017 Report Posted June 25, 2017 Downloading is definitely our most likely option I think, lets hope technology wins for us in this instance.

Several long running television series have been released on DVD such as 2,400 episodes of The Bill, 692 episodes of Prisoner and Blue Heelers (a channel 7 show) is getting re released on DVD this month. Even if you did do downloading of episodes profit would still get siphoned elsewhere such as Itunes. Would the market be there for the episodes though? I can't see it being there for the whole series but certain years definitely.
CaptainHulk Posted June 26, 2017 Report Posted June 26, 2017 thing is, those are weekly dramas, H&A is a daily serial.

IMO there would be no market for 1988-1995 after the recent 7TWO repeat, or episodes from about 2007 to modern day, as they were only broadcast in the last 10 years. The market IMO would be for 1996-2006.
sindikatas Posted June 27, 2017 Report Posted June 27, 2017 We should let Seven know how far we can go to get the early years back. They're not going to show us 1996-1999 just out of the goodness of their hearts, so we must prove that it makes sense financially.

A new petition could be started with people agreeing to buy dvds or download by streaming. It might sort itself out if the ratings of Million Dolar Minute are significantly lower. Seven must know that they won't get higher if the early years are screened early in the morning.
Skylover Posted June 29, 2017 Report Posted June 29, 2017 I guess the ratings were going to be low for 7Two in the morning anyway. The Early Years should have been at like 1 or 2pm.
Homeandawayfan. Posted June 29, 2017 Report Posted June 29, 2017 Yes we can start a petition to try and get the early years back but you wonder if you are making a paper bag out of ink and the petition will fall on deaf ears. I just live in hope one day here in the UK they release more H&A DVD's such as the first season in Volumes.
