I've never had it be inconvenient, just wait 2 or 3 weeks after release and most movie showings are pretty empty. It's not like you can legally watch the movie at home at that point anyway.
That last argument is worthless since not everyone cares to watch movies as they come out so it's the viewing experience itself that needs to be compared, not the fact that both experiences can't necessarily be enjoyed at the same moment in time.
I was stating it as not a disadvantage of waiting 2 weeks for an empty showing. The viewing experience in a theater with an empty showing kicks the crap out of any home viewing experience.
Let's agree to disagree then.
