    Physical Media might not be dead, but Physical Media in Retail Stores are accelerating the death

    As far as VHS tapes go, there are thousands of movies, concerts, documentaries and other genres that haven’t been released on DVD or Blu-ray. While volume has dropped I still sell quite a few VHS tapes per month. And around here you can get a VCR at Goodwill for $5 to $10 bucks. I have in my...

    Physical Media might not be dead, but Physical Media in Retail Stores are accelerating the death

    Interesting article but really has no bearing on my sales as 99% of my DVD or Blu-ray sales are discs that are usually OOP. I scour pawn shops, thrift stores, flea markets to get my inventory. Where I live DVDs are usually $1 or less, Blu-rays $3 or less. I have bought new stock from online...

    Physical Media might not be dead, but Physical Media in Retail Stores are accelerating the death

    I think some people may have had their eyes opened this week. HBO deletes Gone with the Wind from their streaming platform. Amazon and eBay sales of the DVD and Blu-ray go crazy.

    Physical Media might not be dead, but Physical Media in Retail Stores are accelerating the death

    I don’t but IF I had the money I’d love to start a company like Shout. Physical media is still a viable method of making money. I’m sure the big companies like Universal, WB, etc will not release certain shows or movies because they’re not in this to make a little money. They want to make big...
