They later change their mind

Quote of today
"Master, you were right about one thing. The negotiations were short."

Obi-Wan Kenobi agrees with Qui-Gon Jinn’s prediction.
The Phantom Menace
Today…
year 2000 was the release of The Phantom Menace on VHS

The Phantom Menace: Episode I was released world wide but on VHS videocassette only. It was not being released on DVD format "in 2000 or for the foreseeable future".

Lucasfilm tried to explain why delay DVD release in a news article at www.starwars.com (unfortunate the article is removed). But as we all know they later changed their mind.

In Sweden this day, year 2000, was the last chance to see The Phantom Menace in a theater. It was at the theater Rigoletto in Stockholm at 21:30. In the foajé we could buy the VHS for just 120 SKr.
