Here’s why you should never get rid of your Blu-rays (or DVDs) By Chris Bumbray for Joblo.com.
@UKFilmNerd noticed that the selection of BluRay players in the main UK retailers (Currys, Argo, etc) have also decreased over the last few years. Harder to find a non-smart option as well.
@Alastair I have three PlayStation's in the house but the last Blu-ray player I bought was on Facebook marketplace for £10 some time ago.
I used to take it away with me as I work away from home but then I bought a Blu-ray drive in a USB 3 enclosure to use with my laptop.
I feel everyone is just dumping them because "everything is on streaming".
@UKFilmNerd I guess my PS5 counts as a Blu-ray player :)
Titles moving between streaming services is a pain as well, number of times we've started binge watching a series on Netflix only to have it disappear to another streamer before we've finished.
