'Passion' Sells 4.1M Copies in One Day
The second coming of Mel Gibson's biblical epic "The Passion of the Christ" sold 4.1 million DVD copies by Wednesday after only one day in stores. While the figure from distributor Fox Home Entertainment is high, it's not quite a record breaker. "Finding Nemo" holds the No. 1 overall spot for one-day DVD sales with about 8 million. For a live-action movie, "Spider-Man" holds the one-day record with 7 million.

2. One of those companies sent out advertisements...
...to churches offering discounts on purchases of 50 or more, so yeah, there's a lot of bulk purchases involved.
