The film is, along with Urgh! A Music War, famously unavailable on DVD (and VHS before it). I assume this is because of the difficulty of clearing the rights to all the songs, but the article doesn't mention it at all. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 20:38, 15 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Shout! Factory has released all three movies on DVD as of 6/30/15. Spheeris is also at work on the fourth movie now (source: WTF/Marc Maron podcast). I'm not sure how to edit this into the entry. https://www.shoutfactory.com/film/documentary/the-decline-of-western-civilization-collection Bpeschel (talk) 11:29, 13 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

I think we should add a reaction section to this. This documentary was significant and changed the way rock music was viewed. CessnaMan1989 (talk) 15:47, 12 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
