I'll update the table later today, but it's going to be down unless this week is huge.

No. It's hard to maintain sales when the B&Ms are reducing space for physical media or moving it to the back corner of the store. I believe most of the sales were still coming from stores like Best Buy, Target and Walmart, but that might not be the case now. Also Costco eliminated physical media so that doesn't help either.

Sales are pretty much online now. I know that’s how I buy all my films. Having said that, we may be in discs final 10 years now.

I believe the same is true for Sam's Club, however from time to time I will see a POP setup for a tent title.

Word is BB is to stop selling CD's this summer.

For me, stopped B&M media purchases in the 70's, mail order then online. I just don't understand why the B&M puts media on the shelves the way they do. In the few times I have purchased at B&M it was a pain to find the title of interest. IMO, they should be grouped by media type and alphabetized.

Please stop with this talk. Yeah its been slow. But there really could beca simple reason for it. There has not been any Big releases in these 2 months other than IT. And in that week we saw a spike. Just wait when Thor Ragnarok, Justice League, Jumanji, SW Last Jedi ect.. comes out.

Also some really awesome news. WONDER WOMAN was 2nd most sold Blu-Ray/DVD in 2017. With more sales than other superhero Movies than in year 2016 even. Also a really good indication. If the movie is a hit. People will Buy it on Blu-Ray. Digital has gone way down in sales. Its all streaming and Blu-Ray/DVD now.

Honestly, Blu-ray sales seem to do quite well given the majority of releases aren't released on the format. But the majority of Blu-ray releases right now seem to be coming from the labels.

Thor, Justice League, Jumanji, Last Jedi is gonna set life into things again. These months has had very slow releases basically only IT for the masses.

It's been a long time since they're have been any of these Top 10 Box Office items it seems

Jan/Feb always seems like slow months and never releases top movies. It makes sense because people have already spend a lot of money in the holidays.

Thanks for the data. Here are some charts. Quick take? Black Friday sales are for collectors and the rest of the holiday season is getting hit because discs - or perhaps movies overall - are losing popularity as gifts. Box office is somewhat correlated with Blu-ray sales, but I don't know if that's more or less than you might have expected.

I will stick to Bruce’s stats thanks. We are all disc lovers in here.

Ah Steedeel, always thinking you're much more clever than you are.

Those are the numbers Bruce collated. That's why I thanked him.

Thanking him for what? You are not remotely interested in disc are you? You have already said, disc is over for you so why suddenly the interest in this thread again?

True discs are losing popularity, but the real issue is that consumers do not want to own media anymore. It's not a shift from physical to digital ownership, but rather from sell-through (both physical and digital) to subscription streaming services like Netflix and Amazon.

At this point, I think studios are more disappointed that growth has prematurely stalled for digital, than they are with the decline in physical sales. The latter was expected. The former...I don't think so.

That and tax season has to be dealt with, at least that was the it was many years ago when I was in retail.
