Seems to be a mis-interpretation going around various social
medias.  The patent for DVD-video actually expired last
year. And the DVD Forum  has placed the Red Book of
specifications in the Japanese National  library (it was
previously secret men's business only given to  companies
signing an NDA). So DVD is sort of open-source now. Though
streaming has killed it off, and doubtful it will be
profitable even  without royalties.

 
Yep, it's just more nonsense misinformation masquerading as
"news". :-(

Some might say life is just a load of nonsense misinformation...

There are still lots of DVDs, Blu-rays, and 4K/UHD discs still
being released and purchased. Doctor Who is no different -
depending on where you live, there are at least four DVDs and
three Blu-ray release planned for 2025/2026
(https://tardis.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_future_releases),

Doctor Who fans love their physical media... that isn't going to
change anytime soon.

and that doesn't include the Season Collection sets
(Jon Pertwee's 'Season 7' Blu-ray is due for release this
month).

NOW you're talking... I'm eagerly awaiting my copy of this
classic era set to land at Blueshirt Mansions... when you want
quality Doctor Who episodes to watch the Third Doctor is THE
Doctor!
 
Roll on March...
