A good rule of thumb, as 2chers would suggest, is the so called Manabi Line, which lies somewhere between 2300 to 3000 units sold. Obviously different shows have different circumstances (pricing structures, production costs, length, dependance on home media sales), so the question remains what does it mean if a show sold more than 3000 units per disc (usually the first disc)? Does that make it profitable as a whole? I'd say this just means the show had enough sales to cover all of the associated production costs.
