For those of you still interested, here's the email I received in full (It's pretty long and horribly spaced, so I hid it inside spoiler tags):

Fox Home Entertainment
Experience The Original Adventure
Captain America
Available on DVD for the First Time Ever
The Very First Avenger Makes His Long Awaited Debut On DVD on July 19th
LOS ANGELES (June 16, 2011) – Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment's "manufacturing on demand" ("MOD") program is excited to announce its newest addition, Captain America, available on DVD as part of MGM's Limited Edition Collection. Based on the bestselling Marvel Comics series, Captain America stars Matt Salinger (What Dreams May Come) as a crime-fighting superhero whose strengths and abilities may save the United States from nuclear destruction.
During World War II, a brave American soldier (Salinger) volunteers to undergo experiments to become a new super-soldier, codenamed "Captain America." Infiltrating Germany to sabotage Nazi rockets pointed at the U.S., Captain America faces off with Nazi superhuman warrior Red Skull (Scott Paulin, The Right Stuff) who defeats the hero, throwing him into suspended animation. Frozen for 50 years, Captain America is found and revived only to find that Red Skull has changed identities and has targeted the President of the United States (Ronny Cox, RoboCop) for assassination. With America on the verge of utter chaos, it is up to one man to save the day!
Captain America also features supporting performances from Ned Beatty (Superman), Darren McGavin (A Christmas Story), Michael Nouri (Flashdance) and Melinda Dillon (Close Encounters of the Third Kind) and Kim Gillingham ("One Big Family"). The DVD will be available for sale on online retailers everywhere.

Wow. I can't believe this is an MOD. With a big screen summer movie in the theaters I would think a press run on this stinker would be a no brainer. I'd might have actually bought this myself, though god knows why.

MGM certainly wouldn't have sprung for a Blu-ray release, and the studios don't release catalog titles on DVD anymore, so it was MOD or nothing.
