    You’d still want to make it easier for end users to use.

    I’m thinking something the size of a fire TV box that accepts something the size of the Xbox series nvme cart. That way they cam still have art work and make it easy to switch the movies. For large file sizes like that it’s still better fir a lot of people to just buy the completed cart.

      the difference is that the discs cost cents to make. What you’re suggesting is, at best, insanely more expensive to produce.

        Nand prices continue to drop off a cliff. I just bought a 2tb nvme from microcenter for $65

        The only advantage of disc is that it’s cheap. However we can look at the music industry and people willing to pay a premium on vinyl.

        Bluray is limited by its transfer rate which is what 100-150 MB/s. While nand can go into the tens of GB/s. You also go from a 128GB of storage space into the terabytes of storage.

        You couple an insane increase in transfer rate plus an insane increase in storage and then you have a videophile product. So sure Joe six pack won’t buy it at walmart but let’s be real they arent buying Blu rays anymore. Now is the time to go after collectors and those who want the best quality possible
