In an attempt to fight the growing piracy rate, Warner Bros. has decided to release movies online before the official DVD release date.   As of right now, this change is only taking effect in South Korea, where piracy runs rampid. 

The company hopes to turn piracy around by offering movies in digital form before optical discs are available.  I am not sure this will work as, usually someone always finds a way to pirate it early.
