3D movies are a fad ... again ... as you said. It's not even the bother with glasses and prices that will cause them to fade, it's that the new car smell will wear off and people will simply lose interest .... again. There are not as many applications as people claim, like the mouse and qwerty keyboard, we are too accustomed to working on and viewing 2D video and images.
@miesrah12 Not quite the same situation. 3D has been here many many many times already, color TV and movies just came and stayed. 3D is also just an enhancement to the image, it's not a new format or a revolutionary advancement. The problem is ... the problems, with 3D there is just no use for it, color had a massive purpose it filled, movies filled an even larger purpose. 3D fills no purpose.
If 3D TV was eventually made in a way that 1- Didn't require glasses and 2- Didn't make you feel like you were half focusing your eyes and making your brain work overtime just for it to understand where to focus, like 3DS's and other non-glasses products... then it might be an option for me. Until then I would prefer to stick with 2D.
I can Not Imagine anything replacing Blu Ray unless they made the disk smaller the only other media over 15 GB Is flash card which Is about how much a HD movie uses. Myself I like older movies & there are only about 30 movies worth the extra price for Blu Ray as Yogi Bear & Sound Of Music & black & white & cartoons I buy use on VHS or DVD I also have Netflix & Hulu for wrestling & TV shows I do Not rent movie because it cost too much for fuel to get & return.
I would have agreed with you had I not experienced Netflix first hand. Netflix sound and picture quality is horrible. The choice of movie and TV shows isn't all that great either. I find it very hard to believe that based on this the sale of physical copies of movies and TV shows is on the way out. Why have an HDTV if the streaming video is so poor? (ie. VHS quality; at best). Besides, I think there will always be a demand for DVDs, Blu-rays, etc. from collectors.
I like DVDs because they're super effing cheap. No matter how nice streaming is, things can always go wrong and eff up your movie watching experience...
@Arkatox Then you must have a shit TV. If your TV's dpi and resolution is shit, the Blu-Ray tends to look shitty because it doesn't match your shit tv.
@Arkatox But seriously. Streaming your media is becoming the norm. And if you must have a physical copy, your still able to. And for now they look much better than what you can download. But, the whole "DVD looks better than Bluray" is pretty strange considering that they are basically the same tech, but Bluray has a MUCH higher bitrate. Mind you, this is all coming from someone who collects Vinyls for his hifi equipment. So it's not like I easily buy into new things - like most people.
@alexsabree Well, in my dad's words (or similar), new stuff filmed in HD meant for Bluray is spectacular on Bluray. Things that are already on DVD (and HD) that are just "ported" to Bluray are either just as good as the DVD, or not quite as good. It just depends on how it was filmed and edited.
@Arkatox You know the same thing happened when DVD came out. The first DVDs were simply remastered versions of VHS movies. However, people LOVED the idea of switching over to digital. No more fuzzy pictures and or tape reels getting stuck... so the technology was easily embraced. Bluray isn't quite that groundbreaking.
Oh, and did you just imply that some DVD's are HD? I'm sorry but by today's standards, HD is anything above the 1280x720 resolution.
Dont listen to this guy...he's payed to use his big mouth over youtube to trick you in thinking the DVD will die off soon....what hes really wishing is that the DVD would die off leaving nothing but Netflix....Dont be stupid dont listen to this guy...
@DWcriticism This isn't really supposed to be as educational as it is entertaining. Just look at the format of the videos, there met to cause a chuckle, have something fun to tell your friends.. and then forget about. Besides for those of you who say you've researched and "dissproven" his theories.. I think your theories are about as relevant as his.. because we're using the internet. Then again, at the same time my theory is just as relevant as well. Congratz, I just created a paradox.
I don't think dvd's will disapear any time soon. We only put movies on them and the only console that is using them is the PS3. But the PS3 content is often ported from pc, to xbox and to ps3.. so it could be on a dvd just the same. So the biggest disc industry: gaming.. is still using them. why? because we don't need blue ray ey.. or maybe we do but making the transistion will end up in nobody buying the game because xbox can't use them and pc's often don't have a blue ray driver.
I wonder if Netflix forecasted that the Canadian goverment is approving soon a download cap. Soon your internet bill will be based on how much bandwidth you use and netflix just swollows the bandwidth...Also when this passes will Netflix forecast that thousands will shit there pants when they get there internet bill....So dont listen to this guy...
3D should disappear. There's no real difference, except the ticket price. After 10 minutes my eyes get used to it and I don't even notice it anymore. Useless.
Man, 3D is such a fad. And I remember when we broke out the VHS for my youngest siblings (currently 11 and 8). They were mesmerized. Then we broke out the turntable. They were mesmerized.
Reason we like physical media? Watching full content in high quality offline without being bothered by Pop-ups and ads and shit. And if the BOUGHT AND PAID FOR DVD is crammed with unskippable anti-piracy clips that lets us feel like we're the ones who pirate, we rip the content into a clean copy and shove the big fat middle finger into fucking MPAA & Accomplices' ugly faces!
I couldn't help but notice that you're wearing a bright red shirt in this video AND in the netflix video. Is this some kind of subliminal reference? Because now I totally feel like I have to watch the netflix video. *click*
Yeah, dvds will die off soon enough. But streaming has so many issues, bandwidth, downed internet, glitches, power outtages, road trips, gift wrapped movies on christmas (my favorite gift to give), and several other advantages of a "hard copy" makes the fact that physical media will never really go away. iPad won't replace paper for a LONG time, and although dvds may upgrade to small flash drives, or download stations at retailers..
@Feliscar I don't think streaming will be the end all be all of media ownership. for one thing, it's much harder to regulate, harder to provide the same quality.
Christopher Nolan still prefers film to digital because it still has a better quality, and appalls 3D and prefers IMAX for the higher resolution.
I hope 3D dies down a bit, at least until it becomes true 3d, and not a paper puppet show.
@Sageeth no. Power outtages, even brief ones, screw up downloads like as in DVR and such. Also, power surges can screw up you're files. And if you're hard drive crashes, there goes all of your downloaded movies. Trust me, I speak from experience. that's what I meant by power outtages. Even a bad storm can cause corrupted signals, or if the bandwidth is crunched from over access. Just too many annoyances with streaming.
@Sageeth And I haven't had a scratched, broken, or lost disc for more than three years, and I got over three hundred dvds and 50 blu ray. And only four or five have gone bad that whole time. Some people just have bad habits when it comes to handling a disc.
I'll never stream videos. I have to wait for the damn things to buffer and while I'm doing that I can pop a DVD into the player and begin watching it the entire time it takes the streaming video to load.
@r0bw00d ahh... youtube is streamed video, just a bit different. Also never say never. The increase in internet speeds will eventually make it unnoticeable. I heard from a friend that in Finland he was able to download a blue ray movie in half an hour... that is shorter than the time that it takes to watch so if it was streaming there would have been no problem.
YouTube videos aren't exactly found on DVD. And in the half hour it took your friend to download the movie, he could have already popped it into the player and have seen 27 minutes of the movie. Plus, what if you lose your internet connection while it's in the middle of streaming? You have to re-establish the connection and stream from the beginning again.
@Albasirth the quality varies,sometimes 720p, sometimes only 480p and less. Not as crappy as Rogers On Demand, from what I've seen of that service, though ROD seems to have a big selection.... can't complain too much, Netflix is only $8/month, that's 2 movie rentals.
The biggest obstacle for Blu-ray is the simple fact that the leap from DVD to Blu-ray is nowhere near as big as it was from VHS to DVD. Think about it! Going from VHS to DVD was miraculous. Movies consumed less physical space. No more rewinding. No picture degradation. Jump to any chapter. No mechanical parts. Discs are cheaper to produce. The list goes on!
@TheBuzzSaw you have a point, however if people took the time to compare the various resolutions, they would realize that 1080p is a huge leap forward from DVD's 480p. Especially if you use a projector. I've had one for a few years now, they ROCK.
@Duendito I agree that the resolution improvement is mathematically drastic, but it still does not compare to the other overall conveniences afforded by the change in storage. Think about it. Would you still buy into "Blu-ray" if it went BACK to being a tape? Which would you pick? Higher resolution? Or discs that you can much more freely control (and consume less space)?
Physical Media is critical to keep as a consumer. Once you go all-digital, you'll find yourself re-buying everything you thought you owned every couple of years.
@NathanWGregg I have to disagree.. Getting the real CD for music gives me the same feeling of having the full quality, and the whole product, without having to worry about it not being so.
I'm a happy user of Netflix but I still like to buy the Blu-rays of the stuff I really enjoy. The quality is usually a bit better and there is all the behind the scene and bonus features you get on the disc. The main reason I do this though is to support the stuff I like. Plus I can lend (that's right lend, not borrow) it to other people. With that said I'm off to your site to buy one of your crazy cheap DVDs I've been meaning to get. Good thing I waited till the fire sale.
Jesus Christ is the way to God. All who believe Jesus died for their sins and rose again from the dead will have eternal life. Call upon the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved when you believe on Him.
Streaming is quite possibly the future, but the infrastructure isn't yet properly in place. Plus there will always be people who want to own a physical hard copy of something.
@MegaMozartfan you obviously don't have a twenty year old collections of around 300 videos like I did... suffice to say those old video tapes have gone to the tip...
DVD take long to what? Load pfft
Personally I like to watch video I rip from my DVD collection and put onto a portable HDD.
@MegaMozartfan: VHS: fast? Well, sure - if you want to watch your content in a linear fashion (except for the rewind at the end.) But fast forward and reverse - not fast. Chapter seeking? Non-existent. Oh yeah, then there's video and audio quality.
I love using DVDs. The thing that where I live never get on time. So I watched all my favorite TV shows on the internet. But movies, no. I still go to Blockbuster and rent some DVDs, or buy them if there're really good. I love to have DVDs, and have the oportunity to watch them everytime I want to with no difficulties. :)
Maybe in the U.S. Where I live (The Caribbean) we regularly rent physical DVDs. It's become a sort of a traditional family thing where we rent a handful of DVDs on friday. Internet here is...not up to par with the wealthy world so people are still dependent on the physical copies. Though I *did* notice a decline in new DVDs available in the last couple of months.
Last time I was in a videostore to buy/rent DVDs was.... friday!
I like to be able to hold a DVD, it gives me the feeling that it's the real thing, which I don't always get with a streaming video. Also for those who doesn't have fast enough internet... if they want to see a 2 hour movie, they probably don't want to use 5 hours of their time too watch it. I don't think DVD's will die just yet. maybe DVD's will die, like the VHS did, but we have bluray to replace them. At least for now.
@phakim33 A whole generation that doesn't hae to rewind...kinda makes me sad, and nostalgic. VHS was faster than DVD and streaming video though. VHS, you can just fast foreward through the commercials. Can't do that with DVD, just get that "can't do that function" text.While VHS deteriorates over time, 1 scratch on that DVD, and you're fucked. Streaming video, one hard drive crash, one virus, you're fucked.
VHS was also easier to get out of the box. What's with those little flaps on DVD cases?
Oh, for God sake! It seems like you're always trying to talk about things that piss me off! There are still lots of people who like using DVDs, it would not be the right thing to do to expire them around now. The only possible better thing than discs is just making the disc reader able to read past scratches and all so the damn discs won't skip. Not everyone will agree to use "blue-ray" or download everything from the Internet, so just stop talking about how all the fun's walking out the door!
Stop it! Don't you understand that unless the format of what actually is put in the machine (a round disc) is changed, the format will survive for a lifetime! I think the discs will get bigger (capacity) and better but it will always be "streaming" vs. "some disc". The reason is that the disc readers are so extended. If you buy a new product that does the new stuff and also does the old, it's a no brainer. That's why DVD players worked, as they also played CD's. Hey anyone remember laser-discs?
i prefer a physical copy of a movie than a computer download. once you run out of disk space on your computer then your screwed. youd have to have like an enitre computer dedicated solely to netflix and thatll fill up eventually too. then what? fill up a flash drive? oh look! physical media again! its just another format! id rather have a stack of DVDs than a slow running computer with too much on it, thanks.
@plavins1 I am sad that you just watch VCR's. The video cassettes were so much more interesting to watch, or even the screen. (Sorry, I'm a part-time vlounteer Grammar Nazi)

Everyone, link this channel on your facebook!...or dont its up to you ..well do it, if you think this show deservers waaaay more views. No this is not WhatYouOughtToKnow making another channel to comment on there own video to get more attention...I'm just saying.
The DVD will end up in the position the music CD did. If its a really good movie you will buy the DVD. If its a mediocre movie (most of them are) you won't bother. The DVD will be more than alive compared to printed books in a couple of years. The e-reader has transformed printed books into cassette or eight track tapes. A real death if you will.
so you're saying I shouldn't buy anything since it will all soon be gone anyway? Yeah I guess they could come up with something better for toiletpaper...

Even a bad storm can cause corrupted signals, or if the bandwidth is crunched from over access. Just too many annoyances with streaming.

@Sageeth And I haven't had a scratched, broken, or lost disc for more than three years, and I got over three hundred dvds and 50 blu ray. And only four or five have gone bad that whole time. Some people just have bad habits when it comes to handling a disc.

I'll never stream videos. I have to wait for the damn things to buffer and while I'm doing that I can pop a DVD into the player and begin watching it the entire time it takes the streaming video to load.

@r0bw00d ahh... youtube is streamed video, just a bit different. Also never say never. The increase in internet speeds will eventually make it unnoticeable. I heard from a friend that in Finland he was able to download a blue ray movie in half an hour... that is shorter than the time that it takes to watch so if it was streaming there would have been no problem.
Sageeth 1 year ago
@Sageeth
YouTube videos aren't exactly found on DVD. And in the half hour it took your friend to download the movie, he could have already popped it into the player and have seen 27 minutes of the movie. Plus, what if you lose your internet connection while it's in the middle of streaming? You have to re-establish the connection and stream from the beginning again.
r0bw00d 1 year ago
@r0bw00d must be the bandwidth of your internet connection. For me it takes only a few seconds for the buffering to finish. I have a 15Mbit DL.

Netflix's quality sucks and not enough movies online
Albasirth 1 year ago
@Albasirth the quality varies,sometimes 720p, sometimes only 480p and less. Not as crappy as Rogers On Demand, from what I've seen of that service, though ROD seems to have a big selection.... can't complain too much, Netflix is only $8/month, that's 2 movie rentals.

The biggest obstacle for Blu-ray is the simple fact that the leap from DVD to Blu-ray is nowhere near as big as it was from VHS to DVD. Think about it! Going from VHS to DVD was miraculous. Movies consumed less physical space. No more rewinding. No picture degradation. Jump to any chapter. No mechanical parts. Discs are cheaper to produce. The list goes on!
Going from DVD to Blu-ray? "It's shinier!"
TheBuzzSaw 1 year ago
@TheBuzzSaw you have a point, however if people took the time to compare the various resolutions, they would realize that 1080p is a huge leap forward from DVD's 480p. Especially if you use a projector. I've had one for a few years now, they ROCK.
Duendito 1 year ago
@Duendito I agree that the resolution improvement is mathematically drastic, but it still does not compare to the other overall conveniences afforded by the change in storage. Think about it. Would you still buy into "Blu-ray" if it went BACK to being a tape? Which would you pick? Higher resolution? Or discs that you can much more freely control (and consume less space)?

Physical Media is critical to keep as a consumer. Once you go all-digital, you'll find yourself re-buying everything you thought you owned every couple of years.

@NathanWGregg I have to disagree.. Getting the real CD for music gives me the same feeling of having the full quality, and the whole product, without having to worry about it not being so.
totten94 1 year ago
I'm a happy user of Netflix but I still like to buy the Blu-rays of the stuff I really enjoy. The quality is usually a bit better and there is all the behind the scene and bonus features you get on the disc. The main reason I do this though is to support the stuff I like. Plus I can lend (that's right lend, not borrow) it to other people. With that said I'm off to your site to buy one of your crazy cheap DVDs I've been meaning to get. Good thing I waited till the fire sale.

@MegaMozartfan: VHS: fast? Well, sure - if you want to watch your content in a linear fashion (except for the rewind at the end.) But fast forward and reverse - not fast. Chapter seeking? Non-existent. Oh yeah, then there's video and audio quality.

I love using DVDs. The thing that where I live never get on time. So I watched all my favorite TV shows on the internet. But movies, no. I still go to Blockbuster and rent some DVDs, or buy them if there're really good. I love to have DVDs, and have the oportunity to watch them everytime I want to with no difficulties. :)

Maybe in the U.S. Where I live (The Caribbean) we regularly rent physical DVDs. It's become a sort of a traditional family thing where we rent a handful of DVDs on friday. Internet here is...not up to par with the wealthy world so people are still dependent on the physical copies. Though I *did* notice a decline in new DVDs available in the last couple of months.
xRedster 1 year ago
Last time I was in a videostore to buy/rent DVDs was.... friday!
I like to be able to hold a DVD, it gives me the feeling that it's the real thing, which I don't always get with a streaming video. Also for those who doesn't have fast enough internet... if they want to see a 2 hour movie, they probably don't want to use 5 hours of their time too watch it. I don't think DVD's will die just yet. maybe DVD's will die, like the VHS did, but we have bluray to replace them. At least for now.

@phakim33 A whole generation that doesn't hae to rewind...kinda makes me sad, and nostalgic. VHS was faster than DVD and streaming video though. VHS, you can just fast foreward through the commercials. Can't do that with DVD, just get that "can't do that function" text.While VHS deteriorates over time, 1 scratch on that DVD, and you're fucked. Streaming video, one hard drive crash, one virus, you're fucked.
VHS was also easier to get out of the box. What's with those little flaps on DVD cases?

Oh, for God sake! It seems like you're always trying to talk about things that piss me off! There are still lots of people who like using DVDs, it would not be the right thing to do to expire them around now. The only possible better thing than discs is just making the disc reader able to read past scratches and all so the damn discs won't skip. Not everyone will agree to use "blue-ray" or download everything from the Internet, so just stop talking about how all the fun's walking out the door!

Stop it! Don't you understand that unless the format of what actually is put in the machine (a round disc) is changed, the format will survive for a lifetime! I think the discs will get bigger (capacity) and better but it will always be "streaming" vs. "some disc". The reason is that the disc readers are so extended. If you buy a new product that does the new stuff and also does the old, it's a no brainer. That's why DVD players worked, as they also played CD's. Hey anyone remember laser-discs?

The DVD will end up in the position the music CD did. If its a really good movie you will buy the DVD. If its a mediocre movie (most of them are) you won't bother. The DVD will be more than alive compared to printed books in a couple of years. The e-reader has transformed printed books into cassette or eight track tapes. A real death if you will.
