They don't.
Blu Rays aren't as successful as DVDs were because most people moved on to Netflix / Hulu / etc --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://imgur.com/dQgC4kv ... Copied to Clipboard!

It wasn't as big of a technology or convenience jump as other forms of media. DVD's were much easier to store and take up less space, you don't have to rewind them, and looked better than VHS. Bluray was just a DVD that looked kind of better to most people. It wasn't any more convenient or compact or anything.

If they use carts/cards like the Nintendo Switch that might replace DVDs (more portable, more durable).
Blu-rays are just DVDs that look a bit better --- Shenmue II = best game of all time Shenmue = 2nd best game of all time ... Copied to Clipboard!

Lol what??
Nobody buys DVDs anymore. Barely anyone buys Blurays. I don't even think new DVDs are sold separately anymore. The big companies just combine DVD and Bluray. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Lol what?? 100% incorrect. New DVD's are definitely sold. We get them at the store for rental. That being said, Bluray 100% has taken over for DVD. We rent Bluray about 30 to 1 over DVD. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

They don't. Pretty much this. And most every release now is a Blu-ray/dvd/download combo (or Blu-ray/download). --- "Evil is what you make of it. Bind it to a higher purpose and you would have altered its nature. We use what tools we must." - Gerald Tarrant ... Copied to Clipboard!

I honestly do not get all the hype about this hd nonsense I still game and watch movies on my 50 inch crt tv and it is perfect the picture looks great and everything. Hd tvs are the biggest scam in the world.
My biggest gripe is how modern consoles only support stupid hdmi so I have to buy an hdmi to component converter to use my ps4 on my tv. Never bought into that blu ray hype nonsense either it is a scam. Just got black panther and annihilation on DVD and am going to watch them this weekend. --- I play video games. ...

Hd tvs are the biggest scam in the world. Uh, it's not a scam, guy. There's a major noticable difference in quality. If you don't care about that difference that's fine. I get that. I don't really care that much either. But the look and quality is quite the leap. The jump from 480i to 1080p is amazing. 4K is even better. I'm fine with 1080p. I'm not rushing out to get the latest and greatest, but when I eventually get a new TV(10-20 years, mine seem to last), I won't be upset that I'm buying a 4K or 8K TV. The quality and definition is great. --- I use Google... A lot.... >______> ... Copied to Clipboard!

You can watch Blu Ray's on a DVD player, so comparing that difference to the difference between VHS and DVD is being disingenuous. Plus Blu-rays are still far more popular than DVDs nowadays and really like everyone else has said streaming is what's going to overtake DVDs and Blu-rays and it has already begun.

The older generations are used to putting in a vhs and pressing play, or inserting a dvd which will automatically go to the movies menu.
Typical Blu-Ray players come with menus and include streaming apps and whatnot. Time to time it may tell you to connect to the Internet and update something. --- Sig User Logic https://imgur.com/lA5fm7w ... Copied to Clipboard!
