wasn't the big reason for switching to that was because it cost the studios a LOT LESS money

Well, supposedly they are paying VPFs to some exhibitors (the big ones, not the small ones who really need them, naturally) so their net costs right now are about the same. That should change in about two years when the VPFs dry up...but I'm sure the rentals will stay at the inflated levels, if the exhibition industry doesn't put up a fight of some sort.
