I don't know about right now, but everytime I read an article about physical media sales it would always be DVD outselling Blu-ray and 4K.
The power of DVD.
I think this is probably partly attributable to the fact that a lot of Blu-ray buyers graduated to 4K, whereas a lot of DVD buyers remained loyal
But you're 100% right. They're cheaper to make and sell the best; I never buy them, but it would be foolish to stop making them
I still purchase DVDs and I know others that do too.
Just wait until you hear about vinyl sales being up and CD sales being down!
Let me know when cassette tapes are outselling CDs.
Vinyl doesn't sound that much different to CD if played correctly. The quality gap isn't that big. The difference between DVD and Blu-ray is massive especially on modern TVs. I understand why you would compare them but they are very different things and are selling more for very different reasons. People buy vinyl because it's cool and the album art is big. I never see people say "DVD is so cool". Blu-ray players are $10 from the local opshop or Facebook marketplace. The price of Blu-ray isn't 2x the price of DVD anymore either especially if you are getting them on sale or used. I can think of a few reasons why it might be the case though. 1. Most TV shows don't get Blu-ray releases even though they could but the cost is too high. 2. People are buying older movies that don't have a Blu-ray release because they aren't on streaming. 3. Older people still watching discs don't update their technology.
Unless the content got a remaster, lots of shows arent able to take advantage of blurays bitrates.
But would then come with more annoying DRM.
Not to mention, ours is visually slightly 'better' than a lot of countries, thanks to PAL resolutions.
I disagree. Unless the DVD version is the only version they still have available Blu-ray would look alot better because of its better compression, better audio support and no reliance on interlaced video. Even if they only had the DVD version using a very good deinterlacing algorithm and upscaling to 1080p would be a quality improvement.
I don't know what annoying drm you are talking about. DVD and Blu-ray is plug and play with any disc drive with free tools you can find online. 4k is more tricky but all you need is a supported drive and it also works out of the box. That is if you are talking about ripping.
Was hoping to stack with the 2 for $30 deal but it doesn't look like there are any 4k blurays included in that promo?
Yeah it's unfortunate. I'm not buying anything for more than 30% off their usual shitty prices.
Yeah, thats another no purchase for me. Some were saying Australia day might do 30% off but even then I still need my BOGOF or 2 for $30
