As DVD drop, Disney citing streaming video, will no longer be shipping SVDs to Australia and New Zealand markets.

Another reason why people across the globe will pirate instead of buying an expensive and limited subscription.

Edit: Changed to a non-paywalled article and added more to the title.

They still make DVDs?

Yeah, despite being low quality and using outdated codecs conpared to Blu-ray and 4K UHD, DVDs still consistently outsell those two combined.

I actually find the quality of DVDs to be very good with the right equipment. I’ve seen DVDs projected in movie theaters and they look good. There are bad transfers and I’d certainly take a BluRay over a DVD if there’s an option, but overall DVDs are still a solid format that I still use regularly. I’ve never had the urge to actively seek out an update to something I already have on DVD, though I might grab an upgrade if I see a sale or the mood takes me.
