    Do people actually buy SD DVD any more?

    • When you have a child and their favourite movie is removed from Netflix, you are forced to buy the DVD or face the consequences.

      • Fair point. Other than 1 PC, I don't have anything that will play DVD's or Blu Ray now.

        Swapping discs annoys me a lot now - same on XBOX

    DVDs still in demand nowadays? It’s at 720p which is lower than any online streamers.

    Physical media is hard and I can only imagine DVDs are having super low sale record.

      Physical media sales are still pretty dang strong, and DVD makes up about half the total. When I worked at JB, DVD made up a surprising amount of transactions.

      Also DVD is 480p ;) most watchers don’t care about the numbers.

        PAL DVDs are 576p - American NTSC is 480p.

        DVDs usually look fine on TVs that aren't too big. Most Australian networks stream most of their content in 576p - SBS On Demand's World Cup coverage as a prime example.
        DVDs look better than a lot of the over-the-air broadcast content too.

        • Could have mentioned too, that until the mid-00s nearly all TV shows were shot in 4:3 aspect ratio, even the ones from the late 90s that were shot in 16:9 widescreen or 12:9 hybrid were primarily framed for 4:3 standard TV screens. This includes mega popular series such as Friends, Seinfled, Frasier, early series of IASIP. The Soparnos and The Wire fall into the latter category, but the directors have reportedly said they prefer the 4:3 version as it's as they intended it to look.

          DVD is now the only format you can get many of these shows in their original \ preferred 4:3 aspect ratio, as they have been cropped, 'pan and scanned' for widescreen presentation on modern TV broadcasts, online streaming and BluRay.
