UHD Blu-ray Looks to Catch Up

摘要

On Nov. 3, the entertainment industry association DEG: The Digital Entertainment Group put out its third-quarter numbers on the home entertainment industry. Perhaps the most relevant data point: As of the end of the third quarter, 9.9 million 4K Ultra Hi-Def (UHD) TVs have been sold in the U.S., up more than 100% from the same quarter of 2015. Later that day, the Blu-ray Disc Association released its own numbers: As of late October, approximately 80,000 standalone UHD Blu-ray players have been sold thus far, a number that doesn't account for sales of the recently released Xbox One S console, which features a UHD Blu-ray drive.
