It reflects people who buy collections of their favorite series. The "vast majority of people" don't buy anything at all, anime or otherwise. The target audience for product are those who enjoy owning collections. This is true for any series, anime or otherwise.

MFI didn't want permanent high quality copies of their products floating around the internet, available for free with the click of a button. I don't blame them.
You miss my point .... if they want to enforce copyright, fine, but sell me the product please or my sympathy for their plight diminishes. Since they never? intend on selling anything overseas they've not lost anything.
