Physical media sales in the “physical visual” category have risen by around 5% in the first half of 2024 .
Sales of physical media have been in decline for the past several years , as digital formats and streaming services gained popularity.
HMV managing director Phil Halliday claims that part of the rise in sales likely lies with streaming services becoming less of the cheap, convenient options they once were.
Target has stopped selling Blu-rays and DVDs in store, while Best Buy ended online Blu-ray sales earlier this year .
We may not see sales return to their peak levels, but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
I’ve never really given up on physical media for the simple fact that having a disc means I know where my shows and movies are.
