Blu-ray may be the rising star but it hasn’t diminished the traditional favourite DVDs shine.

According to statistics by US research analysts, DVD discs are very much in demand and equate to 63% of home entertainment purchases made in the US whereas blu-ray discs account for only 7%.

VOD (videos on demand) fare slightly better with a 9% share and downloads contribute to only 3% of consumer spending.

Speaking of the report, Russ Crupnick of NPD said, “While many in the home video industry worry that digital consumers might walk away from packaged media, that hasn’t happened yet. Discs are still and by far the dominant way Americans enjoy home video, but there is an increasing appetite for digital options. The good news is that the consumers engaging with digital video today also tend to be heavy consumers of DVD and Blu-ray, but it remains to be seen just how long physical discs and digital formats can co-exist”

With so many different home entertainment formats available; what’s your preferred choice?
