Yes, Sony has stopped making Blu-ray players, but also the underlying patents have mostly expired, bringing a flood of cheaper Chinese players. Who knows, maybe one of them will innovate. A portable player with built-in streaming to iPads? That’s the future I want to see.

"Zoomers care a lot about ownership. They know that if they don't have a piece of media physically, then a corporation could censor it or take it away. Video game and entertainment companies are killing discs when they're more popular than ever."
Ultra HD Boo-ray 💿🎃🦇💀@UltraHDBlurayOct 22
Some perspective: Physical Media peaked in 2004 at about $21 billion in the US. Ultra HD Blu-ray is a niche within a niche. It may be growing again, which is great, but it's not going to eclipse streaming. And this is the *content* market. What with the hardware?🧵 1/2

.@Panasonic needs to take the mantle of 4K UHD Blu-ray (and Blu-ray) like Pioneer's revision of LaserVision into LaserDisc. Absolute dominance and future innovation, even if catering to a niche. Supporters will respond.

Excited to share that I’m the voice of Keele in Tales of Eternia Remastered! It was an absolute pleasure getting to bring this character to life. Huge thanks to @BandaiNamcoUS and @Cupofteaprod for inviting me to be part of bringing this classic back to life!

This would be enlightening for the Western anime fans that are just learning about the lineage of certain tropes but this time Grok is translating Ninku as "Shin Kuu". Again, turn that feature off.

Just found out Y tu mama Tambien (2001) is no longer available on *any* streaming service in the U.S., & that Criterion had to stop producing Blu-Rays Easily one of the 5 most important films of the century This is why relying on streaming for preservation is a shit idea.

You can get a used Xbox One X/S for $100. A good option for anyone to try out Ultra HD Blu-ray? pocket-lint.com/xbox-one-s-g… @elibecht think so. Via @Pocketlint

I know a great 4K Blu-ray player, and you can get it for under $100

You don't have to break the bank for a good 4K Blu-ray player.

Being a straight acting gay man is very hard because I’m constantly coming out and men never hit on me :(

Nothing cooler than going to a media store on another continent and seeing your own product (put out by a local distributor with no modification)

Re-sharing this with some extra images here to remind everyone of how versatile yet refined Katsura-sensei's skills were. From cel illustrations , to watercolours, to designs. I've been in awe of his work for thirty years. Rest in peace, and thank you for all the inspiration.

Don't let the shills and scaremongers win: physical is and always will be better. Laser rot does exist but so does old age and illness, and yet we still live ambitious lives with all of our human limitations. People put love into the design of this stuff. If you own it, own it!

Manga in Japan is cheaper since it’s produced there, yes, but the sad fact is that globally print is becoming expensive. There are less paper volumes being produced in Japan period. It is completely normal for series to suddenly switch digital only releases after the first vol.

Aren’t manga volumes only like €2 in Japan why is the west like this

Can they invent a new type of gay guy? Kinda tired of the anxious-avoidant high achievers who gave up on artistic aspirations to make money/party and who grew up with a harsh, emotionally smothering mom and emotionally distant dad … it’s getting old

Not that Deadline’s brand was ever great, but any media outlet posting literal AI fanfiction is pretty much just lighting its brand on fire. There is no recovering trust from this.

AI "actress" Tilly Norwood returned to the #ZurichSummit at @zurichfilmfest one year after she blew up, and said she’d love to work with Tom Holland and Olivia Colman, but only if “it were their digital twins on an AI production” Read the full story here: deadline.com/2026/09/tilly-n…

Tilly Norwood is a fictional AI-generated character created by Particle6 founder Eline van der Velden, not a real or independent actress.
