Stores like Wal Mart, Best Buy and Target have made their selections of DVDs smaller while Blu-Ray is getting bigger. It's 2014 and it's time to update like we did with VHS to DVD. Don't tell me you sill use VHS tapes in 2004 :P .

Those are stores in US but things work differently in the rest of the world and yeah there's still people who use cassettes whether to watch old films/series or to record something from the TV to watch later because they can't afford or won't a digital video storage device.

A DVD costs £0.50 and then the Blu-ray version is £8 which version is more likely to be purchased? Gotcha.

DVD to Blu-Ray is not the jump VHS to DVD was, nor are all its necessary accouterments low-end yet.

Wow, I can't believe DBGT sold so much more than DB and Z! It just doesn't make any sense when it was so much less popular...

It's probably because GT is not in the original manga.

It's also worth mentioning that GT was significantly cheaper than the DB and Z boxes.
