Simple.... Low prices for DVDs!
Hec, make them cheap enough and it still makes the money since more will buy them and less will feel it's worth going through the hassle of copying... Sure there are those who still will, but like anything, you can't eliminate it completely.....

I doubt companies would do that. After all, everything is run by the dollar. They're going to try and make as much money off DVDs and CDs as they can. Besides, I think more money is lost in theaters, where people bring in camcorders and tape new movies. That way people can download a movie that's still out in theaters and not have to pay to go see it. Granted, the quality is the equivalent of running an aluminum foil cone in the groove of an LP, but the general publc doesn't care. They just want to be able to see the movie and hear the audio. They're not movie connoisseurs, and they're certainly not using to as source footage for anything. How many of you have a large collection of movies on VHS that you taped off the TV? Same idea pretty much.
