Best Buy Says Bye-Bye to DVDs


Best Buy announced recently they will stop selling DVDs/Blu-Rays in early 2024, so let's all give a big ho-hum. That will be my predicted response of the majority of people, and it's one they may regret down the line. Yeah, physical discs take up storage space and require another component to play them, but once you own one, it's yours to keep or do with as you wish. And I have yet to hear a streamed version of a movie that sounds as good as an actual disc. It's possible there could be a few exceptions to that statement, but I've never encountered one. I would assume that Best Buy will also stop carrying the players at some point, so any hard-core diehards may want to think about purchasing a spare before year's end.

Their decision is purely business. They are not selling and take up space. The only way Best Buy can keep selling them would be to raise the price. I doubt the market would bear that. The whole Best Buy concept might be on its way out. People usually go to Best Buy to listen to a piece of hardware and if they like what they hear they go online and buy it for less. Sad but true.
