Reply to comment by el_filipo in Why are Succession's S2-S3 not on BluRay yet? It's one of HBO's most successful dramas. by el_filipo

Oh yeah, absolutely. Quality is better. There's no question about that. There was a serious waste problem in the early 2000's with CDs, DVDs, PC gaming, etc. Now, in a world with recovering supply chains and an emphasis on using the least amount of materials, mass producing discs is a total hassle. They're being both cost and environmentally effective by limiting DVD releases. Does that mean we have the best quality shows? Nope. But, we also have far more access than ever before.

Definitely makes sense about the e-waste. I didn't think of it as much, but with the current supply situation and the environmental damage, could be the case.

I also believe this arrangement gives the Movie Theaters an enduring quality. Sure, they aren't something we all may visit even once a year -- but when we do, we're due for a truly unique experience. Whether that's a sporting event, a film, or the premiere of a show.
