I’m shocked at how DVDs are still over half the hard media market to this day.

That has to be globally, right?

  It’s most likely for US/Canada only. And there are many reasons why DVD still outsells Blu-ray and 4K:
  
  Unawareness of, or indifference to, DVDs’ subpar video/audio quality.
  
  For most people, DVDs “just work”, unlike Blu-rays which require a lot of setup compared to DVD.
  
  Studios and manufacturers did a poor job of educating the public about the different formats.
  
  Streaming/digital is too convenient for the public to consider physical media.
  
  People are unable/unwilling to upgrade their tech.
  
  DVDs are cheaper and more ubiquitous than Blu-rays and 4K UHD discs.

    I didn’t realize that. I’ve bought a few BR movies, but I don’t even have a normal living-room player. I rip them to hard drive and put them on my file server.
    
    I always felt like BR was a victim of “too many cooks ruin the stew”. All the movie studios lobbied so hard to get their copy protection in and make sure you couldn’t skip warnings and ads, that the format is a pain to use, maybe worse than DVD.
