Let me just say that I prefer mentioning and recommending products that will more than likely have steady and consistent demand long into the future. Because for business purposes you want to be around for years to come and not see your profits disappear overnight. The point I’m trying to make is that more or less I prefer to recommend something that will give you comfort and stability into the future and it‘s looking like DVD‘s can‘t do that.
With all that said I thought I’d mention it anyways because movies are very popular and as far as DVDs being obsolete as a product they still do have at least few years to go. Hey, I still have VHS movies that I pop into the old VCR from time to time. So since I still have some VHS tapes even though those are basically no longer relevant except for in this post I’m sure others still have their old movies as well. So you would think that DVDs still have some life left in them. For how long I’m not too sure maybe Blu-Ray DVDs which is a higher quality DVD or digital video disc can keep this way of watching movies alive a while longer.
Something great and unique that DVDs offer is extra content special features, behind the scenes, deleted scenes, interviews, commentary and things like that. Which is probably possible with digital downloading but, probably not the norm. For many that is the appeal of DVD’s it’s all the extra things you get with it, 2 disc special editions of a new release is basically standard. A look into how the movie was made is very appealing to a lot of people especially if it‘s one of their favorite movies.
Aside from movies if you have a favorite TV show you could own the complete series. It will sit there right on your shelf until you feel like watching it you no longer have to wait for its time slot. That goes for current and past TV shows anything that has ever been on TV is probably now on DVD. Walk down the DVD isle and you’ll find box sets of classic shows and even old cartoons that you use to watch as a kid. I know that there are a lot of shows available on the internet too but, is it really more convenient than a DVD? That seems to be where the business of entertainment is going, just look at cell phones and what their doing with media.
Big studios are still making plenty of money from DVD’s so they’re going to stay around a while longer. Here’s a short list of companies and studios making money through there sales but, this isn‘t even half the studios out there just some of the major ones.
- Dreamworks
- 20th Century Fox
- Universal Studios
- Paramount Pictures
- Columbia Pictures
- Sony Pictures
- Warner Bros.
- New Line Cinema
- Walt Disney Pictures
- Touchstone Pictures
- Lions Gate Entertainment
Will Blu-ray DVDs keep DVDs alive for a lot longer it hard to say I don’t know for sure. But digital downloading is a big sign of things to come. If you want to sell DVDs go ahead there’s still life in the business it’s just not as predicable as some of my other recommendations Well that’s my rant about wholesale DVDs take it how you will if you want to sell them go for it if not well hopefully some of my other recommendations will suit you better.
