    Surely most people have an HD television regardless of its size and people are still happy to watch DVDs?

      I have 3 DVD drives and 1 dedicated DVD player. Meanwhile I have nothing that does BluRay.
      Also, DVDs get really cheap.
      I don’t use a TV to watch them, but a laptop. A cheap laptop. That screen barely has colors, so the resolution isn’t such a problem. The only movie where it bothered me was Martian. The text size made it unreadable on 576p.
      Lastly, they are small (data-wise). This means I can just copy them as ISO files onto my phone.
