DVD sure, but why Bluray? They’re actually good…

I don't think most people have a device that can play disks anymore it's kind of crazy to think about but I haven't owned something with a disk drive in several years apart from a old cd player I found in the ewaste I keep at work because I don't want to throw it away

Xbox and PlayStation can both play Bluray, so a lot of people still have the option. But who cares if most people don’t want them? Most people don’t want a Chromebook, but they carry those.
