Kind of a dick move, Universal.

Tonight I re-watched Scott Pilgrim. (Forgot how much I enjoyed it.) And.... just wow. Universal left in the bonus *menus* but went through and specfically removed all the bonus material, replacing it with with a snotty note that said "This is a rental copy. If you weren't such a cheap bastard, you would have gotten a non-rental copy that hadn't been neutered."

Yeah, lil_m_moses mentioned encountering that with a Netflix rental several months ago. :/

Yeah, but I was expecting more 'we made a disc with just the movie'. It's the teasing, holding out a DVD menu full of carrots and then saying "Only $24.99 more and you can have these carrots, Sparky!"

Yeah, I actually told Netflix that my copy was defective because the special features weren't there. And then I borrowed it from the library to watch the special features.

That is an excellent idea.
