getting rid of their blu-ray players.  I was kind of shocked.  I only use 1 of my 5 (for childrens movies we own), but it hadn't crossed my mind to get rid of any of the others.

I have a nice Blu-ray player but if it wasn't for the occasional Redbox, it would collect dust. I never buy the films. {nm} RollingThunder Apr 18, 11:12

I have a massive collection, but the last movie I bouhgt for the collection myself was Superbad, as it was released. that's been ages ago. lobogotti Apr 18, 11:17

completely agree on the channels. it flat out disturbs me. ours start at 1000... I've basically made her lobogotti Apr 18, 11:23

yup, packaged media is in the decline. still makes up a big part of the market, but it'll keep slowing down. But there's no evidence a Moviesnob Apr 18, 11:23

I would tend to agree. On the other hand I have several peeps I know still buying (like my brother). but I have noticed lobogotti Apr 18, 11:27

I would be buying more physical discs but I'm barely getting paid enough to cover rent, utilities and food. {nm} DTravel Apr 18, 18:40
