\n Grab physical DVDs while you still can.\n <\/p>\n

\n Netflix mailed its last red-enveloped DVD last month. Now Best Buy will stop selling DVDs <\/strong>and Blu-ray discs at the end of the 2023 holiday season, too.\n <\/p>\n

\n Best Buy says that streaming has made DVDs obsolete and it can use physical space in its stores and warehouses for tech products in higher demand.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cTo state the obvious, the way we watch movies and TV shows is much different today than it was decades ago,\u201d Best Buy said in a statement. \u201cMaking this change gives us more space and opportunity to bring customers new and innovative tech for them to explore, discover and enjoy.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n The media website Digital Bits first broke the news of Best Buy\u2019s move.\n <\/p>\n

\n Best Buy does not break out its sales from DVDs, but Best Buy currently has 24,000 DVDs listed on its website.\n <\/p>\n

\n The company has shrunk down aisles of DVDs in recent years.\n <\/p>\n

\n Best Buy\u2019s exit from the market will leave Walmart, Amazon and Target as the top retailers stocking DVDs, according to Digital Bits. (Pour one out for Blockbuster.)\n <\/p>\n

\n Walmart reportedly controls 45% of the market for DVDs.\n <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
