The problem with DVDs these days
is the fact that movies are so much more accessible in some sort of rental form, whether it's digital download or Netflix or the $2 vending machine. Think about it, how many movies are there that you like so much that you'd spend $20 give or take for the ability to watch it over and over and over again? Even if you watch a movie five times in your life, it's still generally cheaper to rent. The only other advantage DVDs held were convenience, the ability to watch whenever you get the urge, but with digital downloads and on-demand TV even that advantage is gone. So if DVD sales are going down it's because the model has changed.
