Sony Stopping Disc Production Will Be A Massive Blow To Games Preservation

A new report suggests Sony is looking to wind down production of Blu-Ray discs, with the goal of eventually ceasing to produce physical media altogether. That would be bad news for cinephiles, although most people who are invested in buying physical copies of movies in 2024 have already gotten used to going through smaller distributors like Criterion, Arrow, or Kino. Physical movies will survive as a niche product. But Blu-Ray discs have also been the physical basis for Sony games since the PS3. The manufacturer ceasing production of Blu-Ray discs would mean an end to physical games on the PS5 and any Sony console going forward.
