This has also bugged me, they must have access to every language, yet they just don't. I'm sure it's licensing issues.

At least normally they have have the original audio versions, but just recently I saw that in Switzerland, they released Suicide squad but the german dubbed version only, why??

I find this term so funny because it kinda makes the problem sound like a physics problem given down from some deity. When it's just the content provider choosing to screw you over by writing a contract that includes regional exclusivity.

Especially when these same companies managed just fine when they put all languages on a DVD disc.
