It’s just one company, it’s not all the Blu-ray production stopping. I think the last time I bought any Sony recordable media was CD-Rs for my MP3 CD player in the mid 00s.

Sony owns the blu-ray format. I'm worried.

Why are you worried about Sony owning the blu-ray format?

If they're decreasing their production, it could mean that physical media is ending. If so, that fucking sucks because you can't own anything anymore
