This is the landscape in which the sad state of home video
continued deteriorating in 2024. Best Buy ceased carrying DVDs
this year. Target followed suit. Redbox rented its final Liam
Neeson movie and shuttered its kiosks in July. Finally, LG

Blu-ray and Blu-ray players, joining Samsung and Sony in
ditching the optical drive.
