Anyone here interested in dead physical media formats?
Many probably won't remember but in the mid 2000s, there was the last "Format War" we saw in the Home Video Entertainment business - namely HD DVD from Toshiba vs. Blu-ray from Sony. While the latter succeeded, I began to collect several stuff from the first format and last weekend I was unboxing a BRAND NEW and still SEALED HD DVD Player from 2007. 😍

I mean, the #FormatWar between #HDDVD & #BluRay was prolonged so that #Streaming would become the future...
Sadly not #BitTorrent tho with more and more Streaminh Services doing shit, more and more people will propably return to #DRM-free #Downloads instead...
