Comment on After 18 years, Blu-ray media production draws to a close — Sony shuts its last factory in Feb

Didn’t Sony recently take over Blu-ray production for Disney? And don’t they also have Blu-ray titles scheduled for release in the next few months? This doesn’t make sense to me.

Yes and yes, but looking at BR releases, they seem to drop off hard around the month of May.
This lines up pretty close to 3 months after close, I think that could be a lead time if production ends next month. They are probably printing April releases right now.

You never know, maybe they just didn’t announce new titles yet.
Or maybe I’m just coping.
