Samsung appears to be following the lead of Oppo and exiting the Blu-ray player market in the US.

Samsung has elaborated on an earlier report that it was no longer making 4K players and has confirmed that it will also halt production on new 1080p models.

“Samsung will no longer introduce new Blu-ray or 4K Blu-ray player models in the US market,” a Samsung spokesperson told CNET.

I’ve gone digital with my media (books and comics included), but this feels like kind of a sad end of an era.

Smash cut to 10 years from now where “retro" blu-rays are the hottest thing going.
