Metropolis DVD Introduces DVD Singles

Video Business Magazine has revealed that Columbia Pictures will introduce its first 3 inch DVD as a supplementary disc with the upcoming DVD release of Metropolis. The film itself will come on a standard 5″ DVD and an hour of bonus material will come on a separate 3″ DVD disc. TriStar is reportedly trying out this experiment as a novelty marketing incentive with its first anime release, as anime fans are among the most tech-savy consumers in the American entertainment market, and the most likely to be interested in new DVD sizes and formats.
