Sony will cut around 250 jobs from the recordable media business manufacturing hub and will gradually cease production of optical discs, including Blu-ray discs.

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

They do not own it, they did co-develop it. They’ve never owned it outright.

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

There's still the super-DVDs, or whatever they were called.

mega-discs

You thought blu ray sales would just continue forever?
