Digital streaming is displacing the last remnants of physical media.

In a disappointing turn of events, FlatpanelsHD reports that LG has ended production of its Blu-ray player series, which includes the UBK80 and UBK90 models. With limited stock available, prospective buyers should act quickly to secure the last remaining units before they are sold out.

After Samsung and Sony’s departure from physical media, LG was one of the last major manufacturers of Blu-ray players

    DRMless. Purchases.

    Seems to be an either/or situation right now. I’ll happily take the first one though.

      Yeah, exactly - I specified that. Back when I had some money for media, I bought games on Steam (because they weren’t on GOG, sadly) and had pirated copies correspond to this. That seems about as fair as a rip corresponding to a DVD but without clutter and inconvenience.
