    Excuse me, but still? not 8 mm, VHS, or DVD? People existed before the year 2000.

    Fucking millennials

      Oh man, I can’t wait to pick up a copy of Project Hail Mary on VHS. I’m sure that will be widely available and easy to purchase

        I mean, vinyl and cassettes for music are still made, sure, but they are usually limited run collectors items; not something you can just buy everywhere for every album that gets released. Even new CDs aren’t exactly easy to come by.

        The only time I see BluRays or DVDs anymore of movies I have actually heard of, is at a thrift store.

      Is a bit wild how they remembered to put down vinyls and even cassettes, but forgot DVDs and VHS tapes which are very arguably bigger household names than Blu-ray.

      Also, literally all millenials were born before 2000. And many of them (myself included) grew up with VHS and DVD.

      Blu-Ray is pertinent here because it is a Sony product

      But they could have mentioned other formats too - would it have made the argument any better? Absolutely not, but sure, go ahead and yell at clouds
