I totally agree, the winner are online video services. However there
are few of them available. I am not sure if people any longer look
so much at the physical aspect. In the case of CDs and DVDs they
become so commoditized that I think people will no longer judge them
as "jems". The case of vinyls or books is different (particularly in
the case of books, since it is a very old industry and therefore gives
much variety). Actually I think that DVDs and CDs will end in the
basement floor along with the Betamax and VHS tapes, very soon...

I don't know guys, it may have been said multiple times but the only

However I'm still left wondering when the general public will get
their head around non-physical media. People seem to like the look
and feel of physical media like CDs, Vinyl, DVDs.

Sounds like you need to get yourself a better DVD player.
