Is it truly over for physical discs? Your future entertainment experience will be controlled by streaming companies that store all your data and can revoke access because of your views?
quick buy my stock before i have to write it off and dump them on good will!!!
>>106875226>Your future entertainment experience will be controlled by streaming companies that store all your data and can revoke access because of your views?Anon, just because you dont buy blurays doesn't mean you must go all in on streaming.BDs are still a bad deal, full of DRM that requires a modded BD drive just to rip.All the money you put into BDs is best put into more hard drives, let someone else rip them and download your copy. If BDs ever stop existing, someone will crack the best streams.
>>106875333not him but as a collector and lover of movies that go way beyond the mainstream shit everyone watches, there's a lot that will never end up on streaming services, just like there was a lot that never ended up on dvd because blockbuster had effective control over what did and did not survive the vhs era. kinda shit but obviously my demographic doesn't matter.
>>106875226Yeah, its all gonna be on mental discs now.
>>106875416That's just all the more reason to digitally hoard the shit and get with others who do have copies.Any discs you do have should be treated as a backup to a backup and not for regular use.Also your post seems to insinuate that if DVDs or BDs stop being produced that your niche movies will also just stop being made because they are only ever able to be distributed physically
were blu ray discs actually higher quality or was this a marketing sham to get people to willingly buy DRM?
Sony Pictures Core is the streaming service with the best quality currently available.
Blu-ray was a complete joke. Billions wasted on plastic crap when we already had enough fiber in the ground to stream 100x more. We could have had 10 Gigabit everywhere in the late 90s.
>>106875622Instead the US consumer gets milked every way from sunday and people are to retarded to realize they are being scammed.
it'll be fascinating to see what happens when BDs are officially off the market. streaming services already can't provide DV Profile 7 content and the best they can provide is DV Profile 5 and 8. I predict that they will figure out how to stream DV Profile 7, of which ALL current OLED TVs and non-OLED TVs that market themselves as DV compatible/capable (they're not), will face a dire conundrum. This is where/why DV2 (Dolby Vision 2) is currently being marketed and "new" TVs will have to be DV2 compatible, which is essentially DV1 (Profile 7). only then will streaming services be able to push DV P7.
>>106875597They can’t be serious. Do they think that I’m a fucking idiot or something?
>>106875622>>106875629yes, and all they needed were devices to make a complete and compatible handshake
>>106875708what causes the difference?
>>106875708exactly! and they have gotten better with the streaming quality, but, it's merely HDR and DV P5 and P8
>>106875226i pirate all my jewmedia tho. this doesn't affect me one bit.why can't zoomers into torrents?
>>106875789it does affect you, you just haven't figured out how it does
>>106875226Good fucking riddance. They're a terrible long term storage solution and completely useless for every day data transfer. If you have a bluray drive on your PC you're a super gay baby.
>>106875898not if you rip and provide content to the planet
>>106875226I imported a LG BU40N from a Fujitsu notebook from Japan just because I wanted a slimline BD drive to go in the slimline slot above my card reader. Only use it for DVDs though.
>>106875891The worst thing is there are now stream rips as best quality rather than BD rips
>>106875999yes, and tbf ALL formats are welcome imo, because it's up to the person to decide what he (women don't pirate) wants, based on his needs and preferences, like HDD space and so on. I go for BD and remux rips, because I prefer not to do anything less than DV P7 if I don't have to, because I have the necessary devices to allow for that perfect handshake, HDD space etc.
>>106875226>Your future entertainment experience will be controlled by streaming companies that store all your data and can revoke access because of your views?not on my watch
>>106876066Kek
>>106875898>i hate something that i never use and doesn't affect my life in any manner why?

>>106875622curi stori, aniki>>106876160brainrot is why
>>106875500They were the best quality for the longest time.
>>106876374No it's notWhy go trough the humiliation ritual to CRACK something YOU purchased? that you SPENT YOUR OWN MONEY on?Let someone else do that horseshit and don't pay a dime in the meantime.
>>106875726Filters
>>106875226Anyone still using antiquated physical media is fucking cringe desu.
>>106875226Oh yeah, I should totally go buy some.
>>106875226DVD £8Bluray £15 (this was already too much of a price jump for 80% of people)4K Bluray £25 (!!!!)And then they wonder why nobody is buying themThese discs probably cost pennies to produce, if they priced 4k bluerays so that you could buy 2 a month for the same cost as a netflix subscription they would probably take a big chunk of the streaming market but instead they want you to pay £1000 to be able to watch 40 movies
>>106875226The only blu-ray I own is Paprika, which I bought out of curiosity for my PS3.
>>106875708Dude almost everyone is watching on their phone in a filthy shack in India.
>>106875416I'm a collector too, with a very obscure taste in not just old stuff, but actually TV shows (which stands a much greater chance of becoming truly lost).90% of the stuff I collect was shot way before streaming, and forgotten just as long before as well.But even because of these circumstances, I don't degrade myself to hoarding boxes full of VHS tapes with analogue recordings... Well, only a few at least.My point is that even though the data I collect was never meant for digital releases, I still store it digitally on my harddrives.The majority of these files have been converted by other people, and generously shared on private trackers, but a lot of my collection has also been converted by myself, so I don't need to carry around tons of old media.Just because stuff was never released on streaming sites, doesn't mean you can't still collect it digitally.
>>106875891>>106875999Unless you're a pixel counter, the difference between decent WEB-DLs and BDRips will be negligible.
>>106877241this isn't true, but, you're free to believe and think whatever you want
>>106875226Use case for BDs?>>106875333>false dichotomyAll the games I buy are DRM free.All the music I buy is DRM free.Only cucks buy DRM.I don't watch movies btw because I AM NOT A KEK.
>>106877284T. Pixel Counter
>>106877346Sorry you're so upset
>>106877223>doesn't mean you can't still collect it digitally.I think people's issue is that you might want to collect media but not be a media ripper or even dealing with HDDs, or a NASIt's either have it physically or not have it all because the physical copy is the only working copy.Storing things digitally is a new paradigm not many are looking to learn, even if it's just a natural extension of other hobbies
>>106877398yeah i'm upset because retards like you are allowed to exist. bring back nazi germany where jews and tards got the oven.
>>106877405>>106877398
>>106877405dis nigga crying over shit others do when it didn't affect him personally or directly kek
>>106877398There's nothing to be upset about, I'm just stating that decent WEB-DLs are absolutely enough for 99% of people.Is there a benefit in quality of BDRips? Yes, absolutely. But unless you're sitting there, manually counting the pixels of each frame, it literally is negligible.
>>106875226>horrible year for DVDs and Blu-RaysIt's almost as if retailers make the decision for the public and decided to stop carrying them.
>>106877485Nice info. Never challenged any of that.
>>106877241>the different between decent BDRips will be negligible.This is subjective

>>106875226>Stop selling them to peddle service slop>Sales numbers drop; how did this happen?I already cleaned out most of the pawn shops, the only crap you'll find is direct to dvd marvel/dc cartoon movies, or normalfag trash like game of thrones

>>106875226My DVD tray stopped opening. It's over.
>>106875226Is this why 5.25" blu-ray drives are so expensive like it's 2005 now?
>>106877586And where are you going to get your remuxes from when blu-ray's kick the bucket, faggot?
>>106877711Bought one for 100€ last week. Didnt seem that expensive to me but this is the first ever Blu-Ray drive I bought
>>106877721It will be the end of an era, an extinction event for high quality media
>>106877721please see >>106875701 and >>106876034
>>106875226No, it will be controlled by my five (5) 20 TB HDD full of media.
>>106875226The future of physical media are 100TB disks you store all your ripped media onto. Coming soon.> not as good as the originalsThe theatrical experience until 2000 was spotty at best. Film reels were scratched, sound not great, and often out of focus or mis-projected. When digital came onto the scene, everything improved. But it's not the end of the world if we go back to something of less quality. WebRips are our sad future, but not the end of the world.The people who care about this are like audiophiles who think they can hear subtle differences and think subtle differences matter. Of course they do, but not as much as they say.And yes I am a poorfag.
>>106878180the cope of the poorfag
>>106878197The cope of the autistic retard
>>106877711They've always been expensive, probably the lowest they got was $70. I got my LG BRD for $110. Never expected the price to come down because Hollywood and Silicon Valley always cripple tech that enables piracy/sharing. Rental places like Blockbuster/Hollywood reduced locations just as software jailbreaks were discovered for the Xbox and the PS2 got modchip. I know normalfags went on to use gamefly, but we could have gotten something amazing in piracy if local stores continued operating a bit longer. To me it felt like they reduced cheap physical access to games just as rental stores were becoming exploitable.
>>106878279kek why not tell us about how to you tested both side by side with devices you're too poor to purchase? I'll wait...
>>106875333that guy is me
>>106875726HDR.
>>106875226For a minute I thought you meant blank BDs, then I read some of the thread.I don't watch BD movies, I have a BD burner and use that to burn backups of regular files, as if they were merely very big data DVDs. Roughly five DVDs worth of data fit on a BD (more for multi-layer BD but I have not experimented with that yet), so less physical clutter.
>>106875226Physical discs failed to keep up with storage demand.20 or even 50 GB is literally nothing nowadays.You can buy 20 TB HDDs for cheap.
what is the current meta for best drives and blank media? i will like to use them as backups and archival storage, their data size is in line with the size that i need per project
>>106878362I’ll make the image larger so that you can see the lower image quality.
>>106878461ohyeahnot anything that the average /g/ or /a/ user would be surprised by
>>1068752264K upscales/remasters are all AI garbage.
movies and tv suck now all of it
>>106875226I'm seeing people get a lot more upset at streaming services over the past year or two, plenty of people are claiming they are going back to physical media. but who knows if thats actually making any impact.
>>106878514https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1527793/no you are just american nigger

>>106875226fuck, bluray rips were the highest quality ripswebrips don't meet the same quality
lelzoom zooms mad because they don't know how to pirate. MUST CONSOOM GOY MEDIA. I'M A LOSER IF I DON'T HAVE AN ESTABLISHED MEDIA COLLECTION OR 6 MILLION DIFFERENT STREAMING SERVICESI NEEEEEEEEED THAT 200 INCH 8K TV!!!!!!!!!!!
>BDNothing of value.*as long as uncensored anime has a DRM-free alternative
>>106880006sir, will you please lower your voice.
>open VLC>open kino folder>click on file>watchwhy do people make things complicated
>>106876425Blu-Ray is still the best quality, streaming loses detail by compressing shit harder.
>>106875226>One of the most cheapest and accessible physical media to ever exist today that you can easily make copies of itself or other media without losing qualityIt's not going anywhere.
>>106875226Samsung stopped making DVD reader mechanisms about 4-5 years ago, saying they had already overproduced and their stock will last until it's a dead format. Sony and Toshiba still make Blu-Ray burner mechanisms, and Sony still makes reader mechanisms for their own use but does not sell them as an OEM part for others to use.It will see continued use on computers for data storage but it's a dead format, streaming is much more profitable. But physical discs are going strong, CDs are still selling well, CD and DVD mechanisms both merely read and r/w are still being cranked out like crazy.
>>106875226I thought of getting a BR drive, mainly as a backup solution, but the format's consortium decided Linux would never get official support. So I held on... and just torrented movies that I could have bought otherwise.
>>106875226I got around 50 4k discs and an old bd/dvd collection and a good panasonic player. I got tons of storage for remuxes, just run that in HDR10 from mpv to my tv. Using my discs for Dolby vision now, I did have a firestick for DV profile 5/MEL but it started overheating and been too lazy to replace. Also been lazy to get a device that do DV FEL remux but I'll just buy the disc if it's really good.
I really didn't know how cancer BD DRM was, to the point of reaching firmware-level patches on the (expensive) hardware you pay forironically, thrifting through used stores to chance upon unpatched drives gives you greater ownership
It's over for 4K. A useless format that needs specialized equipment and the price is absurd compared to blu rays.Blu ray 1080p is enough for any kind of movie.
>get a BD drive for the PC>it's mega clunky with loading, playback and intro screens before the menuI've forgotten how clunky these things are. I still enjoy popping in a disc to watch.But for speed I have to rip the disc and watch it from the ripped folder.
>>106875226>>106875333I think the worst part of streaming content is the constant censorship and removal of movies and shows now.Already, an incredible amount of movies and series have had scenes removed because they "don't fit the modern sensibilities">>106876066Torrents are peak
>>106879162I love Monster Bug Wars
>99.9999% of new movies and TV shows aren't worth buying>I actually wanted to buy "Halt and Catch Fire" on blu ray but they never released it the complete series>old movies keeping getting re-released, but I'm happy with the old DVD copy that I have for lots of them.>lots of new blu rays have shitty color grading
>>106881837>>106881931Can you just buy a nice 5.25" BD player/burner that doesn't have any DRM shit? Like this or something?
>>106881889>Blu ray 1080p is enough for any kind of movie.This. And one of the reasons why nobody buys DVDs anymore is because of too many format changesDVD to Blu ray to 4K UHD Blu-ray. VHS was just VHS for like 30 years.
>>106881962It was like 15 years from VHS winning the format war to DVDs being released.
>>106882007>It was like 15 years from VHS winning the format warThere was barely a format war. Beta was done by the early 80s (porn went with VHS and that was that).
DVD sales are doing great no matter what the merchants say. Everywhere outside the US and Europe are buying DVDs. They don't have the money or don't care for more.
>>106881889once you get into projectors and 100"+ screens, 4k is generally better. depending on your seat position of course. the only thing i hate about 4k br is that is has a green hue to it compared to the 1080p br.
>>106882047>Everywhere outside the US and Europe are buying DVDs. none of those places matter, realistically speaking
i find it insane how even pirating movies that are like 1gb are hogher quality than paying for a fucking 30 dollar streaming subscriptionthis shit is literally unacceptableI'm strongarmed by some faggot at best buy to buy a 4k tv and they expect me to watch a 480p upscaled stream with artefacting
>>106881958hifi desktop br-player might need network access for drm update computer bd-drive might have keys for all you have but add another you never know easier to run windows or game console and paid software
>>106882112For it's the way every couple of months or years a streaming service will try to compress audio slightly and it's super noticeable because they're already at the brink of noticeably dogshit audio.
>>106882144>network access for drm updateForgive my retardation, but surely there's like, a jailbroken BD player that can just play everything, I hope, righT?
>>106875333Fpbp, set up a home server or shut the fuck up
>>106882241not even dual side dvd player as far as i know
>>106875416>there's a lot that will never end up on streaming servicesand? they'll just end up on torrent sites and you can just download them on your personal hard drives or burn your own disks. I don't understand those people who say things like "physical media is le good because you have control/ownership over them" while completely ignoring or disregarding piracy because it's "le illegal".
>>106875226i started buying them this year. the problem is i'm not buying them when they are fucking $40 a piece just for the movie itself. I'll buy it when they are around $10-20 at most.>>106876840I'd pay at most $25 but if that shit was over $30 they can fuck right off. They aren't even a collectors edition.
>>106882112You want to know the more fucked up thing? Even if you buy a 4k player it will most likely be a shit experience as well. Their are only 2 blu-ray 4k UHD dolby vision players out there that don't lock up or fuck up and one is over $300 while the other only just recently came out in the US and it doesn't upscale dvd's to well.
>>106881958I got this.
>>106875226I still have M Discs and use them for long term storage in offsite caches, but I am considering switching to industrial SD cards. They seem highly reliable for long term storage, at least according to an industrial user I talked to
>>106884115What's industrial SDs?
>>106881935
>>106875226These kinds of reality checks are always good. When you spend all day on youtube you'd think everyone is building massive physical collections or hoards of pirated content. The truth is far more grim.
>>106875226Just put it on an SD card.
>>106884747SDs rated for long operation AND storage when powered off. You can find them on mouser. I am personally considering the Swissbit 256GB. They are more expensive, needless to say.
>>106885321how expensive? regular sds are cheap as fuck
>>106885344~120€ for 256.
>>106885401expensive, but honestly i would have expected more for actual industrial stuff
>>106881889as a blind fuck who'd need a 6' (yes, ft) screen to be able to see 4k I agree, 1080p is plenty enough.

>>106875226These discs are completely pointless due to the DRM, you can never be sure if they play or not.
I'm just going back to reading books. The future of passive audiovisual entertainment is slop anyway. Why would you care to preserve it?

>>106877223Backing up to HDD is great, what's not great that even 98% of you idiots rip to compressed shit instead of a raw .isoThats no preservation.Thieves are responsible for streaming, out of touch studio execs for decades thought the way they can sell more and for higher prices is to increase quality and features, if you have any standards this was literally beneficial to you.Until online piracy broke the cycle.It didn't matter if the release was censored, 5Gb reencode, reedited or butchered in whatver other way since normies having unlimited free access to trash just like its YouTube was more important, quantity over quality, they only use media as background noise anyways. It just makes sense studios woke up and gave the market what it wanted instead of trying to shove their high end enthusiast shit on a bunch of mouthbreeding retards.

Me? Well, I've never paid for a streaming service. I own DVDs of all the best movies, and I buy certain Blu-Ray classics as they are released. I torrent everything else. If a somewhat obscure movie isn't available from my various on-line sources, I buy the DVD. You can buy DVDs from anywhere in the world.>That's interesting. You seem great so far. But what about music?Don't ask questions. Well, let's move on. I have a similar approach to music. I have CDs of the best albums, I get everything else off soulseek and rutracker, or old blogspots or /mu/ share threads. Good new music is normally on Bandcamp for cheap. And I have never, ever, EVER installed nor accessed a music streaming service like Spotify.>This is making me hot. Go on.I know it is, you dirty bitch. Don't interrupt me. Let's talk about games.>You pirate those too?No, I don't. I buy games on Steam.>But those things are full of DRM!I don't care.>Doesn't that contradict your approach to acquiring music and movies?No, it doesn't.>How not?Steam is cool. Valve is a cool company. And I'm a cool guy. I don't mind sending money their way. And once you own the game on Steam, you basically own it forever.>I don't think that's true.I don't care what you think. Shut up. You're stupid.>That's an ad hominem.I don't care.>This attitude actually makes you even sexier. I'm crossing my legs.Open those things up. I want to... (I gesticulate obscenely.)>Okay. Be gentle to me.Don't tell me what to do.>Okay, sorry.Anyway, I also hoard ROMs for older consoles, and I play them on emulators or expensive flash carts. I download from all the hottest ROM sites. God, you're tight.>Fill me up. Murder my pussy.Shut up. I pay for the Nintendo Switch emulators too, because it's cheaper than flash carts, and it's more comfortable to play on a TV than at your computer.>What about LCD input lag?I don't care. I'm so good at games it doesn't matter.>Why did you stop?I came. You're nothing to me now.>Come back.No!
>>106875226Don't physical discs all conk out after 20 years or so?
>>106890988>Discussion about books>Can't fucking readIf you search for a title of a book, you get pages of results that contain AI slop. The literal thing you are searching for isn't even at the top of the search results half the time.I must be getting old. I legitimately cannot tell anymore if this is bait or if this board is full of people this retarded.
4K should've been a slam dunk because the file sizes are so big that it's inconvenient to pirate and the quality is amazing but they shot themselves in the foot by not making the players more affordable and including stupid drm so you can't play it on a PC without specific disc drives and an Intel cpu. Still I don't think it's as bad as this article says because new 4k discs are still coming out.
>>106875726Some retard running the streaming platform fucking with the picture because they "know" better. Same reason some retard turned 4:3 Simpsons episodes to 16:9 and cropped out important parts. This is a reminder that streaming lets them change your shows on a whim based on some Karen's current sensibilities and how many kudos they'll get for 0.01% more watch hours.
>>106891205It's doubtful that they'll ever get down to similar price ranges, even accounting for inflation.>Blurays have way more effective DRM and encryption schemes. Part of the spec is the ability to push out updates via any disc being put in the drive.>The components require a lot more precision due to the smaller sector sizes. The lasers are higher energy and more expensive. The optical readers are more expensive. The motors require tighter tolerances for rotational velocity and axial wobble.>Physical media is much more of a niche market. You can buy a 256GB flash drive that can read and write at over 100MB per second for like 20 dollars now. That's cheap, more flexible, faster, more compact, and works on anything with a USB port. That's assuming you don't transfer stuff via the internet. A 1 gig fiber connection is like 17 thousand times the bandwidth of dial up. Transferring a 5 gig file takes less than a minute. TL;DR Without demand, there is no market for mass scale cheap productionThere's probably more reasons why. Take your pick though. Any and all of them contribute to the limited availability.
>>106891679There are two types of discs. Pressed disc and laser engraved disc. Former doesn't suffer from disc rot which is the type of disc you buy from a movie/music store.
>>106893298>inconvenient to pirate.How so? A 100GB remux rip of a lengthy movie can be downloaded in real time at a bit over 100Mb/s. Anyone with fiber can get gigabit, and 100Mb is basic basic cable these days. Hell, I've got a relative on disability that gets 200 down on their free cable package. I had 120ish Mb down a decade ago when I was on comcast living in rural nowhere and I'd routinely download 4k remuxes and watch them as they downloaded. All it took was giving the torrent client a couple of minutes to build enough of a read ahead buffer and it was fine. With fiber it's buffered enough to be watchable by the time I walk down the hallway 30 feet, take a leak, and walk back.Storage is sub $10 per TB if you are OK with buying certified refurb drives.What's inconvenient about it?

i just want real m-disc back
4K/8K blu ray will be come a niche to a point where only cinemas and die hard fans will use it.

physical discs do not intrinsically allow you to retain your media forever. if we didn't "grow out" of the digital disc era, they would make discs require an online connection to be played. likewise, files can be downloaded over the internet without DRM - in theory, at least.
