This is debatable some may say agree some may not, over the years dvd's are becoming less popular, this is to do with online sites, tv's and new technology being released to give the audience more ways of accessing films without having to buy them.
Online media's such as Netflix being instant and love film give you the chance to pay £5 a month to watch as many films as they want online this is one of the best ways to make customers want to do this instead as its more for their money, but not every one wants to watch a film online, some may want a dvd to keep or for their collection which they can pick up and watch, or even give to someone by being a physical product, but with some of the most used shops closing down such as blockbusters and HMV this doesn't make it any easier for them to buy it which is why a majority of the people will find a different way of watching a DVD.
For some paying around £10 for a film isn't too tempting, so less people are likely to buy a DVD unless its in their budget or they don't have access to a computer. Hence why more people will divert to going online and watching a film for free or can even download to their PC. Although both have pro's and cons one way they are similar is the piracy, some DVDs you may get are pirate copy's or bad quality and so may the films online, such as giving you a virus, being slow or just having good quality, so could Blu ray be the next most popular viewing platform?
However DVDs are still popular with the customers, being more sure that they will provide you with better quality and certainty to work without any stopping and loading which could depend on broadband and the speed as well as the sites. They also can have bonus and special features as anywhere else you will not. Its more user and eco friendly and on the other hand, some hmv's are still open.
