Since it's technically MacBook laptops that are losing their optical drive--and the weight thereto--seeing as most laptops are just remote extensions of the desktop terminal.
As for the desktop iMacs, most not only still have an optical drive for hard-disk DVD's, but a remote control for viewing them, as well.

(And first Microsoft/HD-DVD, and now Netflix's Little Brother, who couldn't get any other channel besides Netflix and couldn't sell to anyone who already had a game console...Why does EVERY losing format start sour-graping that "Well, disks are probably dead anyway "?)
