A couple of things: Most Blu-ray discs require an internet connection to play on most players and PCs. (don't really know why, but discovered this at work.) In order for this to happen, the DVD and BR makers are going to have to ramp up quite a bit.
Personally, I like the disc options because of no commercials. However, it does take us back to the storage problem and surely they will start putting commercials on the discs.
- GloomyBoots 3y agoIs this true? I’m not saying it isn’t, but I buy Blu-ray’s pretty regularly and my player is offline but hasn’t had any issues. I mainly buy older films, so maybe I’ve just been lucky in avoiding protection used for new releases.
- Mindwipe 3y ago> Most Blu-ray discs require an internet connection to play on most players and PCs No they don't. It's not even in the spec (it is in the BD+ and UHD Blu-Ray specs, but no disc has ever been released that used it for anything other than interactive extras).
- haunter 3y ago>Most Blu-ray discs require an internet connection That's only for BD-Live which is very limited for a few releases. Most studios only released a couple of films that way and ditched the whole thing years ago https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blu-ray#BD-Live https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blu-ray#BD-Live
