Gonna miss the Lionsgate Best Buy 4k exclusives. Don’t know if Walmart is going to pick those up or what. I don’t see LG stopping doing them - they do such a great job at that price point it would be a shame. Thanks for the informative vid 👍🏼

The most important thing is that we shop at Best Buy‘s in stores and show them that there’s demand for them to keep supporting physical media in their stores,so that they reverse there dumb decision!!! As much as I love physical media without a major retailer like Best Buy‘s carrying them it’s going to be a major nail in the coffin for physical media if people aren’t seeing it in person they’re not thinking about it out of sight out of mind. All those sites to order movies from that’s all good and fine but that’s not gonna make physical last without major retailers carrying them in stores.

@@markpugh6808 I can only speak for my area because I’m in New York and there’s no Walmart but according to my friend that works at Best Buy here physical movies sell extremely good at Best Buy’s. When a new Big release comes out they sell 100s of that movie alone in a week, No employees even knew about them not going to carry physical movies before it was mentioned. But once again if people go to the store and buy them there’s a chance for the Best Buy’s might reverse there decision they are business.

I keep getting damaged 4K blu-rays and standard blu-rays from Amazon. At the rate of 50% it seems. However, the damage is more and more related to heat damage and shelf storage abuse and or handling damage rather than pure shipping damage, which of course also still happens sometimes. I’d like a disc media store that would do the brief visual inspecting work to only ship me quality like new product, makes sense right, to look at it and say hey this is in good condition or not, then pack it well for me to survive the shipping process.

Only thing to get Free Shipping u gotta spend $35-$50 bucks and of course if i want one movie. It's $32-$34 so they try make u order another movie to get FS... Never ordered from Kino, but i'll check some of these sites out. I wonder how Shipping is from these new companies...That's the main thing. BF I will be busy ordering since BB is stopping Blu sales. These sites will be more Popular to go to. But most important is Shipping with far less damage with bad packaging. We'll see - lol

My biggest disappointment with the loss of Best Buy is the exclusive steelbooks. I do hope Walmart or someone takes up the slack with those, but I fear there's going to be a loss of the amounts of releases that get one now. I'm with steelbooks the way you are with slipcovers - sometimes if I'm on the fence about a title the fact there's a steelbook will be the deciding factor to buy.
