Somebody tweeted Shosh that she wished QAL would release a DVD and Shosh replied nobody plays DVDs any more. She's getting a lot of replies from folks saying they still play DVDs or blurays and would love a QAL DVD/bluray. Of course Shosh wouldn't be the decision maker should QAL ever decide to release a DVD....lol.

Well there is always hope for a TV special with a video of a full concert...that we can all PVR, for posterity ---until that system goes the way of the dinosaur too!

I‘m have been waiting for an official DVD/Blu-ray release for years. So many fans do and are asking for it. Many Queen fans do, and even some old Queenies, who aren’t necessarily fans of the collaboration with Adam, said, that it’s more than overdue, that QAL releases a live recording. What are they waiting for? And no, I don’t think that any other way of release would give us the same quality with background stories ect . than a DVD can. Hey, Queen is releasing old concerts every couple of years... why can’t QAL release ONE single concert????

So many fans and sales are ignored with those assumptions.

I think lots of people still use DVDs. I think A QAL DVD would see very well.

I know there are still some using DVDs but I honestly think energies would be much better spent creating a portal to 'sell' viewings of concerts live. Also, selling high quality downloads of concerts....I would buy plenty of those over one DVD....I am moving into yet a smaller place [huge home trend] and am getting rid of anything I don't use and that includes my Bluray player which I have not used in 2 or 3 years, even though I have the DVDs sometimes.... And I am an old one....young people certainly don't have or use that technology for the most part. Sorry....it is what it is....

And I am an old one....young people certainly don't have or use that technology for the most part. Sorry....it is what it is.... ...in your country. Out of interest I just checked the statistics (Shosh mentioned, they have them). In 2017 81% of videos were bought in physical copies (DVD/Blu-ray). Less than 19% were streaming. Streaming is growing, but not that fast. Less than 50% have a TV with internet connection. Many never use the internet connection though... Only 37 % (summer 2018) say, they have ever payed for streaming a Video or a TV series on any technical device. Now you can guess, the age groups. No, the ones streaming (older Teens, young twens) are mostly not the ones attending the shows. 😉 If QAL wants to sell a video in Germany (its second biggest market in the 80s and 90s), they will need physical copies. That’s how it is over here. (And the reason, why we got an actual physical CD of the single Ghost Town. 😁)

I've only recently bought a dvd but wished I could purchase a video format (mp4) as download... I'm 27 but i still think its got something to got through someone ms shelf and see what movies and books they own...no one would go on your kindle to see our books our browse your hard-drive for movies or music...kinf of old school lol
From a spacial point of view digital formats are more convenient of course...
Shawn Mendes has said (i think it was him) that Germany is the second biggest music market...still..

Great seat and lowered price. (she actually marked the wrong row by one row, but hardly any difference)
