Further Reading:
surprised to see how popular DVD still is, would've thought that'd be on its way out by now.
As stated in previous threads, there are lots of reasons why DVDs are still popular today:
- Unawareness of, or indifference to, DVDs' subpar video/audio quality.
- For most people, DVDs "just work".
- Studios and manufacturers did a poor job of educating the public about the different formats.
- Streaming/digital is too convenient for the public to consider physical media.
- People are unable/unwilling to upgrade their tech.
- DVDs are cheaper and more ubiquitous than Blu-rays and 4K UHD discs.
