11Why Are All DVDs Grey?
Read More »I've noticed that all the DVDs we are getting from Netflix lately are the same – grey color (gray) and plain text. No frills and no graphics. I also noticed that the DVDs we purchased from Disney, for the kids, are also the same grey. In Netflix's case, I'm guessing this is some kind of cost-saving measure, though I can't imagine why. In Disney's case, we are purchasing these as retail-items, so I don't understand the cost-saving argument.
