while DVDs are 576p-720p

576p is the absolute maximum. Most DVDs are actually 480p.

It's just consumer writeable. Blu-ray movies will be fine, and other companies will be manufacturing consumer writeable Blu-rays as well.

Backing up personal data, mostly stuff from my childhood that is irreplacable. Sure, I could just put them on a HDD, but then I'd have to replace it every 5-10 years. Data stored on Blu-ray can last a long time.

Don't fret, Verbatim will still be making recordable BD-Rs. However, this will mean that there will be no more 128GB BD-Rs, we'll be stuck with only 100GB BD-Rs (Sony is the only company that makes 128GB Blu-rays).

I recently ordered a pack of 128GBs from Japan. I'd recommend you do the same, because the prices are gonna skyrocket.

My impression is that they both have a respect for each other, although they don't necessarily like each other.

Don't worry, there are still some services out there that do this!

3D Blu-ray Rental

DVDInbox

And Gamefly allows you to rent movies, too!

I find that sometimes when I try to crosspost and select the community to crosspost to, the entite "Create Post" page resets, and I have to type everything out all over again. Is there any fix for this?

[–] TheImpressiveX@lemmy.ml 11 points 5 months ago

That's certainly reassuring.

Can't wait to experience the tech support call center scams in Dolby Atmos.
