Panasonic retains Avatar exclusivity till world’s end.. well almost

The ads are everywhere, and Panasonic is making sure that you know that with every Panasonic 3DTV you buy, you get a free copy of Avatar 3d. Now that in itself is a brilliant move on their part, marketing- wise. But apparently, Panasonic UK retains exclusive rights to sell/ give away Avatar 3D till their contract ends in 2012 february. It’s a bit ridiculous, and totally unfair to those who aren’t big fans of Panasonic but really want Avatar (hey, it is a great movie after all). Of course, there’s always an option of going online and picking up a copy of the disk on ebay, but with a price tag of $150, I’d say that’s not going to be happening much either.
