The catalogue in 3D
The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens
Strike.TV was created during the 2007-08 Writers Guild of America (WGA) strike as consortium of more than 40 online shows by Hollywood guild members, and later uploaded to YouTube. "Strike TV is overseen by its creator, Peter Hyoguchi who got the idea off the ground during the WGA's 100-day walkout with the help of its association with United Hollywood, the scribe-run blog that became an influential force in rallying and disseminating info to scribes during the strike." The website was first archived 7 September 2008. Its launch on October 28, 2008, featured several shows of various genres: "The purpose of the site is to generate revenue for out-of-work colleagues. Strike.tv has pledged to donate the first three months of ad revenue to the Entertainment Assistance Program of the Actors Fund. The site is also intended to generate revenue for the writers as they will own the intellectual property they create." (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
