Moser Baer’s DVD Play Ignites Price War

There is a price war happening on the home video front. Following Moser Baer’s aggressively priced DVD entry into the home entertainment marketplace, its competitors too are not taking chances. Moser Baer priced its DVDs at Rs 34 for a pop while VCDs at Rs 28. The company also recently launched some 75 Hindi titles, besides hundreds of titles in regional languages.
Now the competition has responded. T-Series has cut DVD prices to Rs 45 on select movies and is offering a package of three films for Rs 75. Ultra has brought down the price of its old catalogues from Rs 300 to Rs 45 even before Moser Baer started the war. Another company Shemaroo Entertainment says it may follow suit. And that’s possible by mid-May, according to Atul Maroo, joint managing director, Shemaroo. Taurani, managing director, Tips Industries, says he will see how the response to Moser Baer pans out, and will decide a future course of action.

can any body tell from which site i can get the T-series dvd’s collection’s title?

Its a good move to nullify the effects of piracy more than anything else and to try and attract people who download to buy them and save on time. I also hope that this will bring some fair prices into the market while selection increases as well.

Awesome! I heard that T-Series reduced the price but I was unaware of the reason (Hats off Moser Baer). Today I visited Music World (Kolkata) and I could not resist and purchased 8 titles, I will be visiting again next week to get some more :) I am surely this is very much needed to stop piracy. Legal, good quality, economic, complete satisfaction of mind. I won't mind paying more for new titles. Thank you Moser Baer.

KB Srinivas

Hi Moser Baer, now most of the DVD's are available with enterance of you. But i think Evergreen Hit Films & newly realeased Hindi movies should be available in the market. I am exepcting moserbaer they will be coming the above comment. Like Reliance has created history in Mobiles same as that Moser Baer also creating a new history in the DVD's world. Congratulations Moser Baer.

Vinod

Hi, Moser Baer, Very shortly I am shifting permanetly to NZ, and before that I want to take at least 1000 VCD`s DVD`s with me, ( as I am an old person of 59, and this may be the only source of ``time pass `` there——if i do not get a job there of course.) I wish to suggest that Moser Baer should also give the address as to where from these VCD`s or DVD`s can be bought.
However I request Moser Baer communicate with me directly on the above mentioned mail id.
Thanks Moser Baer.

Hi
Can any one tell me where to buy this Latest DVD movies from.
Moserbear is giving ads in TV , But where to get it from

I don't think what moser baer is doing would impact online dvd rental cos. as the titles which moser baer stocks are old hindi & regional movies only.In fact the latest hindi movie they have is baazigar-which was released 14 years back.These they can easily price at 28-34 Rs.

In case of online dvd cos,I am a subscriber myself of this company called madhouse-They stock all new dvd releases on dvd-Guru,Dhoom-2,Water,Casino Royale.In fact the rental experience here is better than buying dvds.

Prasath

Great move by moser baer's. They are doing what reliance did on the mbile market
