Warner Home Video changes movie distribution

Warner Home Video has just announced that they will no longer distribute theatrical releases to libraries or home video rental stores until 28 days after they release the movies for sale at retailers. The first movies that will be affected by this change are Crazy, Stupid Love, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2, and The Hangover Part 2.
The library will continue to order multiple copies of high demand titles. The titles will not be available for check-out until approximately a month after they are available for individual purchase.
