Finally: iTunes to sell movies same day as DVD release

At long last, iTunes will begin to sell movies same day as the physical DVD release.  With Fox, Walt Disney Studios, Warner Bros., Paramount, Universal, Sony Pictures, Lionsgate and New Line on board, Apple is clearly aiming for rival Walmart after having recently surpassed them in music sales.

Previously, Apple’s releases have been available 30-45 days later than DVD releases- presumably to avoid sales cannibalization.
