[快訊] Sony於二月針對家庭用戶停產藍光光碟

因為日本家庭有錄製電視節目的需求，Sony一直以來都有製造可燒錄的藍光光碟片。不過隨著需求減少，業務持續虧損，Sony決定於二月結束停止生產藍光光碟，另外MiniDisc、MD Data和 miniDV等儲存媒體也都一併停產。

不過以上措施僅針對家庭用戶，由於日本市場對於影音和遊戲光碟仍有一定的需求，所以企業用戶暫不受影響。

藍光是繼DVD之後出現的儲存格式，以大容量和高畫質著稱，因獲遊戲主機PS3支援而成為市場主流。不過隨著串流服務的興起，實體影音產品的銷量開始滑落。不僅是Sony，另一大廠Panasonic也在2023年停產可燒錄的藍光光碟片。另外三星、Sony和LG也都相繼停產藍光播放器，許多人無奈表示這又是一個時代的結束。

Sony produces recordable blank Blu-ray discs because the Japanese home users have the need to record TV programs. However, Sony decides to stop producing Blu-ray discs in Fabruary because of losing demands and profit, along with MiniDisc, MD Data and miniDV.

The above policy only applies to home users. Business customers are not affected because the Japanese market still has demands for physical media and game disks.

Blu-ray is the successor to DVD and well known for its large capacity and high video quality. It became popular when it was supported by the PS3 game console. However, with the rise of streaming services, sales of physical media products have declined. Another company Panasonic also stopped producing recordable Blu-ray discs in 2023. In addition, Samsung, Sony and LG have stopped producing Blu-ray players. Many users admitted that this is the end of an era.
