The flexibility is only because of there aren't portable players, not because there won't be, so it's not really a "restriction." I haven't seen any prices released, so while I do expect them to be a bit higher, I don't think they'll be that much higher. The price point is about as high as it...

I think The Matrix trilogy, Lord of the Rings trilogy, and Harry Potter are impressive launch titles.
