It should come as no surprise that Avatar was the top selling DVD last week. Despite not being released with any extra DVD content, the blockbuster still set the first day sales record. Even though sales were great, it didn’t manage to take the top spot in rentals. The Blind Side made a huge jump from the fifth to the top spot. Maybe the NFL Draft had something to do with it?
