Re: Blu-ray and DVD sales - We're number 2, but we try harder

This year the decline is steeper than normal, especially for BD + UHD. I think partly due to the lower box office power of releases compared to last year (Blu-ray/UHD is highly dependent on the...

Re: Blu-ray and DVD sales - We're number 2, but we try harder

Yes, during DVD's early days and heyday, and until streaming became popular. I should have qualified my comment with that. But obviously streaming is more convenient and cheaper if it's on a...

True, but cheaper and more convenient were never selling points for discs anyway.

Re: Blu-ray and DVD sales - We're number 2, but we try harder

Having so many streaming providers is a double-edged sword. How many are going to sign up for all of them to get access to all the movies out there? Having one or two providers where the studios...

Re: Blu-ray and DVD sales - We're number 2, but we try harder

I don't know. I wouldn't go as far as to say that disc will need the same kind of retro revival as vinyl to survive.

Certainly not going to help. Physical media will always be around for the collectors and video/audiophiles, or just people who don't want to depend on movies being on servers or having an internet...

Re: Blu-ray and DVD sales - We're number 2, but we try harder

I wonder as well. Probably peak at well under $1 billion and within the next 2-3 years is my guess. I thought it would overtake Blu-ray within 10 years (which I said over 3 years ago), as Blu-ray...

Re: Blu-ray and DVD sales - We're number 2, but we try harder

Yes, would have been easy to predict back in 2010 or 2011 when this thread started, as Blu-ray's market share was growing at an anemic rate. I was referring to predictions back in 2008, after the...

Re: Marvel's The Infinity Saga Collector's Edition -- 11/15/19

The Blu-ray and the UHD are all the same discs as before. So whatever extras the Blu-ray had are still there. The only extra disc besides the bonus disc is the Avengers: Endgame. Iron Man 1 and 2...

Re: Blu-ray and DVD sales - We're number 2, but we try harder

It's actually surprising that DVD declined as slowly as it did, given all the forces that came against it after it peaked. Most people with an opinion back then assumed DVD would have been long gone...

Disc is nothing special. Mainly new material, but only about an hour's worth of content.

Re: Blu-ray and DVD sales - We're number 2, but we try harder

Blu-ray/UHD up to 45% revenue share this year. I'm sure next year DVD will be finally less than 50% since DVD's decline rate is accelerating (down 20% this year vs. the norm of 15%).
