I don’t understand your comment. Is this article suggesting noone will release their films on bluray?
Comment on Sony will gradually cease production of optical disc storage media products, including Blu-ray discs

Wondering if we’ll get another format war at some point or if people will just accept streaming and owning nothing

Per the article it is saying that they will eventually cease production of them altogether. Sony owns the rights to Blu Ray so any company wanting to put their art onto it is out of luck once they stop making them altogether.

Did a quick search:

Looks like we’ll still be fine minus new Columbia Pictures UHD releases.

Looks like you’re right I always though Sony was the only patent holder of blu ray

Since I’ve not heard of a new format coming out I can only assume purchasing will be out the windows. However, that just means they get less of my money. I don’t mind renting movies if I’m unsure of the movie, but unless I can own a digital copy I’d never get one. The only reason I have any more is because they came “free” with the disc I purchased.

Accept nothing. Own everything. Sail the high seas.
