    I fully realize I might sound like an ass here, but… do people really, genuinely still have DVD players? Or is it just a turn of phrase, like “dial a number” or “rewind a video”?

      Kind of, I’ve got a Blu-ray player, which I’m not using as I’ve also got a PS5 that can do that now.

      We’ve got a DVD player and a VHS player. And a Nintendo 64, game boy color, etc.

      We’re a bunch of millennials with our treasure trove of old technology.

      My ps4 is my dvd player and has been since it came out. My parents still have a DVD player and a huge DVD collection.

      They also still have an old tape player but my dad is currently in the process of converting all of our VHS to dvds.

      He just converted all his cassettes so he could have all his music.

      Im in my very early 30s. My dad is in his 60s.

      We’ve got a PS4 and a USB dvd-rw drive.

      But then, we’re old.

      Edit to add: my ex had a moment of horror realising the age difference when I said I had tons of cool music and she realised I didn’t mean playlists online.
