I know that theft is a big problem, but isn't this going a little too far.
So they protect the box sets, but not the cheaper DVD's. What is going to stop someone from taking 10 or so $10 or $15 doillar DVD's that are in the aisle outside of the electronics department, going somewhere secluded, taking the discs out and walk away. And stealing at least $100 worth of DVD's?
And who in their right mind is going to buy something that is already damaged? Maybe people who either don't notice or don't care. Or people who only care about the movies and could care less about the package condition.
Next time I want to buy a box set, I'll probably buy on-line.

Then again perhaps it is possible but still they shouldnt comprimise the shopping experience of people who actually buy their dvds
