I'd say this is a chicken and egg situation where if anyone would buy those instead of pirate them, they would make the discs.

- skelpmargyar 4y agoI disagree. The amount of people who pirate shows is tiny compared to regular viewers of a show. Stopping piracy doesn't really lead to a significant more legitimate purchases; most people just don't pirate in general. And people in general don't buy Blu-Rays because streaming is more convenient and cheaper.
- oneoff786 4y agoI don’t know anyone under the age of 30 with a dedicated machine to play the discs. Maybe some of the game consoles can do this. But seeing shelves of movies and shows on a rack feels super outdated to me. A lot of these things feel like stuff that people watched once or never and they were just gifts.
- MomoXenosaga 4y agoDigital piracy golden age was in the 2000s and they released everything on DVD. But I think it was streaming that basically killed the idea that people would pay hundreds of euro for a box set. I distinctly remember buying a single season of Westwood for 40 euro!
