i think that’s it. We used to use CD-Rs and DVD-Rs to record playlists and movies, respectively. Data hoarders today will prefer multi-hard drive servers over burning everything to Bluray, and for one-time file transfers, we have flash drives and online file shares. I just can’t think of a use case for BR-R that isn’t better served by a different technology.
Honestly surprised, i thought blu-ray m-disc was moderately popular
Not as profitable as charging someone licensing fees ?
I’d never even heard of it, I feel like cheap large flash drives and streaming killed the main use cases for these.

I believe Blurays are still a very good medium for long term data storage, like a cold offsite backup.
Isn’t that what tapes are for.
Sure, if you have enough data to make the cost of a tape drive worth it.
M-disc is for long term storage, which flash and hard drives are not suitable for.
