Everywhere you read, all the stories are that Home Entertainment sales are up for the first time in a few years.  That is Good News.

I think disc-based video has a floor and a ceiling. There are lots of people who chose DVDs and Blu-Rays because they were the most convenient option and will shift to streaming as it becomes more prevalent and accessible. But there are lots of people who chose DVDs and Blu-Rays because they like the ownership model, and they'll never be satisfied with streaming or cloud storage as the only option. I consider myself in the later category.
