return2ozmaDVDs are the new vinyl records: Why Gen Z is embracing physical media
Grandwolf319I wish blue ray 50 GB discs were more used.
They have really good shelf life and it would be awesome for things like yearly backup of your photos or some shit like that.
I have bad news for you - Panasonic, Sony, and Samsung have all stopped production on BR-R discs.
they might bring it back with HDD drives going AIxtinct.
Verbatim still manufactures their DataLifePlus series of BD-Rs, and they are excellent. The market otherwise is pretty bleak… Ritek offers nothing that compares to the DLP discs.
Also, side note, Pioneer (once a leading manufacturer of BD burners), no longer makes them. LG is the lone surviving manufacturer I believe.
Agree and this is very informative about that: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xA9Xq7hb6Q0
He also has another video somewhere to stress test done off the disks I think
