When did people stop using DVD?
CNBC.COM: The death of the DVD.
I am going to say around 2008-ish.
I know in the 1990s dvds were rampant lol. When did people stop using DVD? Of course, it is 2021 and DVDs are pretty much extinct now like the dinosaurs and VHS Tapes.
I watch alot of Randomfrankp (Tech youtuber and Custom keyboard fanatic) videos and I love his Room Tour Setup series where he shows pictures of people's computers setups kinda like the Post Your Gaming Setup thread here on these fine forums. None of the computers have an optical drive (DVDRW) lol. Optical drives and DVDs are dead now and have been for years probably. As we live in a streaming digital world. We can watch our movies and tv shows on our iphone 11s, android smartphones.
DVDs aren't totally dead though. I still have my rack of DVDs sitting by my dresser drawer.
Of course, it makes sense for DVDs to die. They just take up so much space in your house, in your bedroom having to store. And having to carry all your dvds around with you.
I still miss DVDs.
I miss rummaging thru the Walmart DVD Bins.
And I am currently ripping all those dvds on my rack to my HDD, lol.
