The problem with this is that the production companies will NEVER change their business model as long as people keep buying their over priced discs. I really don't know how the tv business works in Japan, but I do know a thing about it in the US and I can say that tv shows here don't implicitly depend on dvd sales to survive. In another words if it can happen here then it can be made to work in Japan. The problem is, unfortunately, is that the business won't change until the Japanese otakus stop throwing their income at BDs. Seriously how do they even afford it?
