No, it just needs someone who actually cares like Shout! Factory.
Frankly man, what you see as a "poor excuse" is irrelevant since you're not the one trying to sell the product.
If you aren't willing to accept that "Halloween, Alfred Hitchcock, Friday the 13th, Child's Play" are all more successful "brands" than a series of British Dracula movies made in the '50s and '60s then I'm not sure what to say. As Tom pointed out, negotiating with multiple entities is generally going to be expensive (for starters that's more deals to make). Factor in that the titles you're acquiring are very "niche" and could probably turn at best a very slim profit. I'm sorry you don't like that but that's just how this business has always worked.
. My goal is to purchase one per week. Some of the more expensive ones towards the end will probably take a little longer to save up for, and accounting for additions along the way *hopefully* I can be all caught up by year end...
