DVDs are the new vinyl records: Why Gen Z is embracing physical media - Lemmy.World

Its Blu-ray not DVD right? DVD was an impossibly low resolution, that really isn’t fun to watch today.

Blu ray works perfectly on today’s hardware

DVD is perfectly fine resolution, not everyone even has a 4K screen or TV. Most people still have 720x1080 or 1080x1920p screens or TVs. Our tv personally is 720x1080 and it looks just fine.

That’s a 15 year old TV at least and of course you don’t see a difference on that. My 4k is at least 6 years old. If I bought one now I would not be able to buy lower res.

DVD is pal or ntsc and if you played that on a monitor the picture is as small as phone. It’s like the lowest SVGA res

Yeah but we’ve also seen 4k screens and the iMac at our vocational school class was an 8k display. We get it’s an us thing but like we’ve experienced higher resolution screens before and unless it’s for productivity like for work, resolution wasn’t the determining factor of enjoying content, it was whether the content was good or not in the first place :P
