    Stats:

    For the week ending 7th November 2015, here are the stats:

    Percentage of revenue:
    Blu-ray vs DVD: 39.54% vs 60.46%

    Blu-ray sales total spending: $50.38 million
    DVD sales total spending: $77.03 million

    These stats available from here:

    Home Media Magazine



    Top 10:

    Another A-list release this week in the form of Pixar's latest offering Inside Out. It easily outsold the last two week's number one 'Jurassic World', by nearly a 5-to-1 margin.

    The next new release was in third place, Vacation.

    That was actually it for new releases in the top 10, and Toy Story That Time Forgot was the only other new release in the top 20 (coming in at 11th).

    But once again, it's not the number of new releases, but the quality of these releases, that set the tone for the week with Blu-ray revenue rising above the $50 million mark again, although Blu-ray market share was just shy of 40%.

    The complete top 10 chart is below (new releases in bold, and Blu-ray exclusives are denoted by *):
    1. Inside Out
    2. Jurassic World
    3. Vacation
    4. *Aladdin
    5. Pixels
    6. Avengers: Age of Ultron
    7. Southpaw
    8. San Andreas
    9. Star Wars: The Original Trilogy
    10. Max


    Blu-ray Sales Share:

    BD sales share for a title is the percentage of disc packages sold for this movie that contained the Blu-ray edition of the film (including combos). So a BD sales share of 60% indicates that 60% of disc packages sold for this particular film contained the Blu-ray edition for this film, and so anything over 50% means that the Blu-ray version of the film was more popular than the DVD version.

    This week's top seller 'Inside Out' also had the best BD sales share, with 56.52%. 'Toy Story That Time Forgot' managed 40.07%, while 'Vacation' was not in the top 20 with 33%.

    'Inside Out' was also available on Blu-ray 3D, with a BD3D sales share of 4.26%.

      Yes, that's a real good job, and now this database is quite a real time machine. When this topic was started, there were a lot's of different future ideas which sounds totally weird today. For example, nobody thought, that the "iThings", just like iPhone will change everything, as there weren't any need for such things at the market, but there were a need for a lot's of optical drives and optical drive investments.

      And, even it's a real long story, for now it's only a part of the history. So actually, we are writing history. Ok, mostly You write the history, we just assist for this sometimes

      Optical things... just like a galaxy, far, far away

        We have a new number one this week and it's the new release Terminator: Genisys. However, it was not a great seller on Blu-ray, at least not compared to last week's 'Inside Out', which meant that Blu-ray revenue and market share both dropped, with the former falling just shy of the $40 million mark.

        There were quite a few "new" releases in the Blu-ray top 20 this week, much of it was Star Wars related, but more on that later. In third place however was the next new release, Trainwreck. Self/less was in 7th place.

        The rest was all Star Wars, with the new Blu-ray exclusive Steelbook versions of the films. Popularity wise, they were in the order Episode IV, Episode V, Episode VI, and then the prequel trilogy in their right order, finishing in 9th, 11th, 13th, and 15th, 17th and 18th.

        Outside of the top 20, we have Mr. Holmes and Pay the Ghost, which were 8th and 17th respectively on the Blu-ray and DVD combined chart.

        The complete top 10 chart is below (new releases in bold, and Blu-ray exclusives are denoted by *):
        1. Terminator: Genisys
        2. Inside Out
        3. Trainwreck

        9. Star Wars: Episode IV
        10. Avengers: Age of Ultron


        Blu-ray Sales Share:

        BD sales share for a title is the percentage of disc packages sold for this movie that contained the Blu-ray edition of the film (including combos). So a BD sales share of 60% indicates that 60% of disc packages sold for this particular film contained the Blu-ray edition for this film, and so anything over 50% means that the Blu-ray version of the film was more popular than the DVD version.

        'Terminator: Genisys' had the best BD sales share as well, with 63.66%. It was also available on Blu-ray 3D, with a BD3D sales share of 9.58%. 'Trainwreck' managed 45.68%, while 'Self/less' got 43.31%.

        'Pay the Ghost' and 'Mr. Holmes' got 26% and 24% respectively.

        An 'all red' week prevented thanks to rising Blu-ray market share, as the new 'Terminator' movie couldn't compared to 'How to Train Your Dragon 2' from this week last year.

        Blu-ray sales decreased by $8.2m (down 17.1%), while DVD sales decreased by $20.62m (down 22.8%) producing $28.82 million less in combined revenue.

          Top 10:

          Blu-ray revenue and market shared dropped slightly compared to last week, despite the scarcity of new releases this week.

          The week's best seller only managed to get 3rd place on the Blu-ray chart, and it was The Man from U.N.C.L.E..

          The release of the extended versions of The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies also helped the movie re-enter the top 100, at 5th (the trilogy pack was 13th).

          And that was it for the Blu-ray top 20, although Jeff Dunham: Unhinged in Hollywood did manage to grab 13th spot on the combined Blu-ray and DVD chart.

          Despite the small number of new releases, the Blu-ray results remained high thanks to the last few week's major releases ('Inside Out' and 'Jurassic World').

          The complete top 10 chart is below (new releases in bold, and Blu-ray exclusives are denoted by *):
          1. Inside Out

            Stats:

            For the week ending 28th November 2015, here are the stats:

            Percentage of revenue:
            Blu-ray vs DVD: 34.55% vs 65.45%

            Blu-ray sales total spending: $101.20 million
            DVD sales total spending: $191.68 million

            These stats available from here:

            Home Media Magazine



            Top 10:

            It's Black Friday week, and sales are way up for both Blu-ray and DVD, with Blu-ray revenue exceeding $100 million for the first time since the last Black Friday week.

            Traditionally, the Black Friday week is not a week that has many new releases, or in this week's case, *any* new releases at all, but with so many sales on, it's usually the one time of the year you can rely on for huge disc sales.

            And this year is no different, with Blu-ray's $101.20 million just shy of last BF's $103.58, a negligible drop. This is much better than last year, when results fell by more than $15 million compared to BF 2013.

            DVD sales continued their decline though, and maybe even accelerated a bit, with this year's $191.68 down by more than $34 million compared to last year (DVD revenue for BF 2014 was down $27 million compared to BF 2013).

            Combined disc sales showed that BF 2015 was down $37 million compared to BF 2014.

            As for this week's best selling titles, the sale of selected titles, such as 'Furious 7' and 'American Sniper', helped them get back into the top 10.

            The complete top 10 chart is below (new releases in bold, and Blu-ray exclusives are denoted by *):
            1. Jurassic World
            2. Inside Out
            3. Home
            4. Pitch Perfect 2
            5. American Sniper
            6. San Andreas
            7. Furious 7
            8. Interstellar
            9. Mad Max: Fury Road
            10. *Aladdin


            Blu-ray Sales Share:

            BD sales share for a title is the percentage of disc packages sold for this movie that contained the Blu-ray edition of the film (including combos). So a BD sales share of 60% indicates that 60% of disc packages sold for this particular film contained the Blu-ray edition for this film, and so anything over 50% means that the Blu-ray version of the film was more popular than the DVD version.

            No notable new releases this week, but 'Jurassic World' topped the BD sales share charts with a massive 77.11% BD sales rate, ensuring that more than 3 in 4 disc packages sold for the movie contained a Blu-ray version of the film.

              Stats:

              For the week ending 5th December 2015, here are the stats:

              Percentage of revenue:
              Blu-ray vs DVD: 34.75% vs 65.25%

              Blu-ray sales total spending: $58.04 million
              DVD sales total spending: $108.97 million

              These stats available from here:

              Home Media Magazine



              Top 10:

              The Black Friday sales are over, but the week ending the 5th December does include the Cyber Monday sales, and this is perhaps why Blu-ray revenue remained at a relatively high $58.04 million.

              Typically for the Cyber Monday week, new releases are light on the ground, and in this week's case, there were none in the top 20. This allowed recent hit Inside Out to take back the number one spot, with the other spots being filled by discounted titles, and some Christmas favourites.

              Comparing this year's Cyber Monday to last year's, both Blu-ray and DVD revenue fell, with DVD falling more (as expected). This allowed the weekly Blu-ray market share to rise compared to last year, scant consolation perhaps considering total revenue fell by more than $36 million.

              The complete top 10 chart is below (new releases in bold, and Blu-ray exclusives are denoted by *):
              1. Inside Out
              2. Jurassic World
              3. Elf
              4. National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation
              5. Jurassic Park Collection
              6. Furious 7
              7. How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000)
              8. The Polar Express
              9. Harry Potter Complete 8-Film Collection
              10. How the Grinch Stole Christmas


              Blu-ray Sales Share:

              BD sales share for a title is the percentage of disc packages sold for this movie that contained the Blu-ray edition of the film (including combos).

              Another with with no notable new releases, and it was the turn of 'Jurassic Park Collection' to top the BD sales share charts with an even more massive 93.13% BD sales rate.

                Stats:

                For the week ending 12th December 2015, here are the stats:

                Percentage of revenue:
                Blu-ray vs DVD: 40.59% vs 59.41%

                Blu-ray sales total spending: $87.66 million
                DVD sales total spending: $128.33 million

                These stats available from here:

                Home Media Magazine



                Top 10:

                Two A-list titles (one a bit more A-listy than the other) helped Blu-ray revenue rise to nearly $80 million, and for weekly Blu-ray market share to go above 40%.

                The two titles were Minions and the slightly less popular Ant-Man, which sold roughly half as many copies as the animated hit.

                The only other new release fell outside of the top 10, at 17th place for The Transporter Refueled.

                But the two mega-hits, and also the Star Wars fever helping to make all of the Star Wars box sets appear in the top 10, helped the Blu-ray results for the week to be one of the best for the year as we get down to the business end of the year in terms of disc sales.

                The complete top 10 chart is below (new releases in bold, and Blu-ray exclusives are denoted by *):
                1. Minions
                2. Ant-Man
                3. Inside Out
                4. Star Wars: The Original Trilogy
                5. Jurassic World
                6. Star Wars: The Prequel Trilogy
                7. Star Wars: The Complete Saga
                8. *Aladdin
                9. Avengers: Age of Ultron
                10. Home Alone


                Blu-ray Sales Share:

                BD sales share for a title is the percentage of disc packages sold for this movie that contained the Blu-ray edition of the film (including combos). So a BD sales share of 60% indicates that 60% of disc packages sold for this particular film contained the Blu-ray edition for this film, and so anything over 50% means that the Blu-ray version of the film was more popular than the DVD version.

                'Minions' had the best BD sales share, with 62.69%, closely followed by 'Ant-Man' with 62.51%. 'The Transporter Refueled' managed 34%.

                Both 'Minions' and 'Ant-Man' were available on 3D as well, with BD3D sales share of 27.51% (!) for Ant-Man, but only 3% (!) for Minions. The price differential between the standard 2D version and the 3D versions of these films (just $2 for Ant-Man at one point, compared to around $7-9 for Minions) may be responsible for the BD3D sales share difference.

                It's official, Minions and Ant-Man can't beat Guardians of the Galaxy, at least not on DVD. An "all red" week avoided thanks to DVD revenue falling faster than Blu-ray's (and thus, ensuring Blu-ray market share was up).

                Blu-ray sales decreased by $0.87m (down 1%), while DVD sales decreased by $33.09m (down 20.5%) producing $33.96 million less in combined revenue.

                Blu-ray's market share increased from 34.97% to 40.59%.

                  Stats:

                  For the week ending 19th December 2015, here are the stats:

                  Percentage of revenue:
                  Blu-ray vs DVD: 39.79% vs 60.21%

                  Blu-ray sales total spending: $105.50 million
                  DVD sales total spending: $159.63 million

                  These stats available from here:

                  Home Media Magazine



                  Top 10:

                  Blu-ray revenue reached a 2015 high, thanks to still strong sales of 'Minions', and the release of three popular titles. And with Christmas in mind, sales were also high (as is the case every year at this time).

                  Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation, Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials
                  and Ted 2 were in the 2nd to 4th place, while the 2015 reboot of Fantastic Four was also new, in 8th place.

                  That was it for new releases in the top 20 though, but it was enough to turn this week's Blu-ray revenue into one of the highest ever (although it's still not quite at the record levels achieved during the same week in 2013).

                  The complete top 10 chart is below (new releases in bold, and Blu-ray exclusives are denoted by *):
                  1. Minions
                  2. Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation
                  3. Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials
                  4. Ted 2
                  5. Star Wars: The Original Trilogy
                  6. Ant-Man
                  7. Inside Out
                  8. Fantastic Four
                  9. Star Wars: The Prequel Trilogy
                  10. Star Wars: The Complete Saga


                  Blu-ray Sales Share:

                  BD sales share for a title is the percentage of disc packages sold for this movie that contained the Blu-ray edition of the film (including combos). So a BD sales share of 60% indicates that 60% of disc packages sold for this particular film contained the Blu-ray edition for this film, and so anything over 50% means that the Blu-ray version of the film was more popular than the DVD version.

                  The new Mission Impossible movie managed a BD sales share of 63.83%, which was the highest for the week. The new Fantastic Four managed 51.88%, while 'Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials' was only slightly behind at 50.71%. 'Ted 2' managed 48.43%.

                  None of these new releases were available on Blu-ray 3D.

                    Stats:

                    For the week ending 26th December 2015, here are the stats:

                    Percentage of revenue:
                    Blu-ray vs DVD: 38.58% vs 61.42%

                    Blu-ray sales total spending: $107.28 million
                    DVD sales total spending: $170.80 million

                    These stats available from here:

                    Home Media Magazine



                    Top 10:

                    The last full week of 2015 became the best week of 2015, as holiday spending helped not only Blu-ray spending, but also DVD spending rise compared to the already good week that was last week.

                    New releases, as is often the case during this time of the year, was light on the ground, with only one new release in the top 10, and another in the top 20.

                    War Room got as high as 4th place, while critically panned Pan (pun intended) was panned by Blu-ray buyers too, coming only as high as 12th place.

                    That was it for new releases in the top 20, but recent releases, and some popular older ones (Star Wars!), helped Blu-ray revenue stay above $100 million for one more week.

                    Look out for our 2015 Blu-ray sales results review coming in the next week or two.

                    The complete top 10 chart is below (new releases in bold, and Blu-ray exclusives are denoted by *):
                    1. Minions
                    2. Star Wars: The Original Trilogy
                    3. Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation
                    4. War Room
                    5. Inside Out
                    6. Star Wars: The Prequel Trilogy
                    7. Star Wars: The Complete Saga
                    8. Jurassic World
                    9. Ant-Man
                    10. Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials


                    Blu-ray Sales Share:

So a BD sales share of 60% indicates that 60% of disc packages sold for this particular film contained the Blu-ray edition for this film, and so anything over 50% means that the Blu-ray version of the film was more popular than the DVD version.

                    For the two new releases, 'Pan' managed to get a BD sales share of 39%, with the Blu-ray 3D version getting a BD3D sales share of 3.83%.

                    'War Room' managed 26%.

                    Blu-ray results were much improved compared to the same week last year, but DVD sales continued their decline, albeit at a much reduced rate, resulting in a rare combined revenue increase.

                    Blu-ray sales increased by $26.80m (up 33.3%), while DVD sales decreased by $11.68m (down 6.4%) producing $15.12 million more in combined revenue.

                      Stats:

                      For the week ending 2nd January 2016, here are the stats:

                      Percentage of revenue:
                      Blu-ray vs DVD: 37.75% vs 62.25%

                      Blu-ray sales total spending: $46.23 million
                      DVD sales total spending: $76.23 million

                      These stats available from here:

                      Home Media Magazine



                      Top 10:

                      We now have one foot tentatively into 2016, and both Blu-ray and DVD revenue fell, although both fell at around the same level meaning Blu-ray market share remained relatively steady, near 38%.

                      In terms of new releases, we have a few, but the first week of 2016 was hardly a spectacular week. The best selling new release, Hitman: Agent 47, only managed a 4th place finish on the Blu-ray top 20 chart. Star Wars fever is obvious from the chart, as 3 of the top 5 titles, including the top 2, were all Star Wars titles.

                      The next new release was at 10th place. The Perfect Guy actually did much better on DVD than on Blu-ray, and was second on the combined Blu-ray and DVD chart.

                      Outside of the top 10, we have A Walk in the Woods in 12th place and Bone Tomahawk in 16th.

                      The complete top 10 chart is below (new releases in bold, and Blu-ray exclusives are denoted by *):
                      1. Star Wars: The Original Trilogy
                      2. Star Wars: The Prequel Trilogy
                      3. Minions
                      4. Hitman: Agent 47
                      5. Star Wars: The Complete Saga
                      6. Ant-Man
                      7. Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation
                      8. War Room
                      9. Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials
                      10. The Perfect Guy

                      BD sales share for a title is the percentage of disc packages sold for this movie that contained the Blu-ray edition of the film (including combos). So a BD sales share of 60% indicates that 60% of disc packages sold for this particular film contained the Blu-ray edition for this film, and so anything over 50% means that the Blu-ray version of the film was more popular than the DVD version.

                      'Hitman: Agent 47' had the best BD sales share of the new releases this week, with 41.84%. The rest, in order of highest BD sales share to lowest, was 'Bone Tomahawk', 'A Walk in the Woods' and 'The Perfect Guy', with 28%, 27% and 23% respectively.

                      None of this week's notable new releases were on Blu-ray 3D.

                          Blu-ray vs DVD: 34.42% vs 65.58%

                          Blu-ray sales total spending: $30.57 million

                          These stats available from here:

                          Home Media Magazine



                          Top 10:

                          There were 6 new releases in the top 20, but Blu-ray revenue and market share both shrank as the holiday sales are truly over.

                          Sicario was the week's best selling new release, and best selling overall DVD and Blu-ray title.

                          In fourth place, after the two obligatory Star Wars entries (Original and Prequel boxsets) was the next new release, The Visit. Another two places down, selling behind yet another Star Wars title (Complete Saga boxset) was The Walk in 7th place.

                          The rest of the new releases fell outside the top 10. Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse and Joe Dirt 2: Beautiful Loser were in 14th and 15th respectively. The Green Inferno finished in 20th place.

                          The complete top 10 chart is below (new releases in bold, and Blu-ray exclusives are denoted by *):
                          1. Sicario
                          2. Star Wars: The Original Trilogy
                          3. Star Wars: The Prequel Trilogy
                          4. The Visit
                          5. Minions
                          6. Star Wars: The Complete Saga
                          7. The Walk
                          8. Ant-Man
                          9. War Room
                          10. Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation


                          Blu-ray Sales Share:

                          BD sales share for a title is the percentage of disc packages sold for this movie that contained the Blu-ray edition of the film (including combos). So a BD sales share of 60% indicates that 60% of disc packages sold for this particular film contained the Blu-ray edition for this film, and so anything over 50% means that the Blu-ray version of the film was more popular than the DVD version.

                          Of this week's new releases, 'The Walk' had the best BD sales share, with 61.36%. It was also the only notable new release available on Blu-ray 3D, with a very respectable 28.65% BD3D sales share.

                          Top seller 'Sicario' did quite well too with 52.18%. 'Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse' just failed to break through the Blu-ray/DVD parity level (50%), with 47.26%. 'The Visit' was 20th on the BD sales share chart, with 37.98%.

                          'Joe Dirt 2: Beautiful Loser' managed 20%.

                            Top 10:

                            Weekly Blu-ray revenue and market share both rose, thanks to a selection of new releases.

                            The best of them, and the week's top seller was The Martian. Not too far behind was Hotel Transylvania 2.

                            It was these two titles that were responsible for this week's better results, but there were also other new releases in the top 20. In 7th place was Sinister 2, while the 10th place was also occupied by a new release, Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension.

                            That was it for the top 10, but in 17th place was the last new release in the top 20, Sherlock: The Abominable Bride

                            The complete top 10 chart is below (new releases in bold, and Blu-ray exclusives are denoted by *):
                            1. The Martian
                            2. Hotel Transylvania 2
                            3. Star Wars: The Original Trilogy
                            4. Sicario
                            5. Star Wars: The Prequel Trilogy
                            6. Minions
                            7. Sinister 2
                            8. Ant-Man
                            9. Star Wars: The Complete Saga
                            10. Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension


                            Blu-ray Sales Share:

                            BD sales share for a title is the percentage of disc packages sold for this movie that contained the Blu-ray edition of the film (including combos). So a BD sales share of 60% indicates that 60% of disc packages sold for this particular film contained the Blu-ray edition for this film, and so anything over 50% means that the Blu-ray version of the film was more popular than the DVD version.

                            'The Martian' led the BD sales share chart for the week, with a BD sales percentage of 59.24%. 'Hotel Transylvania 2' also managed to break through the 50% barrier, with 51.54%.

                            'Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimensio' got 43.88%, followed by 'Sinister 2' with 40.01%. 'Sherlock: The Abominable Bride' managed 26%.

                            As for Blu-ray 3D releases, both 'The Martian' and 'Hotel Transylvania 2' were available on 3D, with BD3D sales shares of 9.64% and 5.15% respectively.

                              For the week ending 23rd January 2016, here are the stats:

                              Percentage of revenue:
                              Blu-ray vs DVD: 36.94% vs 63.06%

                              Top 10:

                              Blu-ray revenue and market share remained largely unchanged from the previous week. There were four new releases in the top 20, but the most stand-out one, and the week's overall best seller, was Straight Outta Compton - it outsold last week's number one, 'The Martian', by more than a 2-to-1 margin.

                              Then it's down to 4th place for the next new release, which was Everest. Next in 5th was another new release, The Intern.

                              The last of this week's top selling new releases was Woodlawn, in 7th place.

                              The Condemned 2 managed to get into the combined Blu-ray and DVD top 20 at 13th place, but failed to make the Blu-ray top 20.

                              The complete top 10 chart is below (new releases in bold, and Blu-ray exclusives are denoted by *):
                              1. Straight Outta Compton
                              2. The Martian
                              3. Hotel Transylvania 2
                              4. Everest
                              5. The Intern
                              6. Star Wars: The Original Trilogy
                              7. Woodlawn
                              8. Star Wars: The Prequel Trilogy
                              9. Sicario
                              10. Minions

                              BD sales share for a title is the percentage of disc packages sold for this movie that contained the Blu-ray edition of the film (including combos). So a BD sales share of 60% indicates that 60% of disc packages sold for this particular film contained the Blu-ray edition for this film, and so anything over 50% means that the Blu-ray version of the film was more popular than the DVD version.

                              'Straight Outta Compton' also led this week's BD sales share chart, with 59.45%. 'Everest' also managed to get over the 50% mark, with 53.67%.

                              'Woodlawn' and 'The Intern' managed 32% and 30% respectively.

                              The BD sales for 'The Condemned 2' was at 28%.

                              'Everest' was the only 3D release out of this week's notable new releases, and it managed to get a BD3D sales share of 9.56%.

                                Stats:

                                For the week ending 30th January 2016, here are the stats:

                                Percentage of revenue:
                                Blu-ray vs DVD: 33.33% vs 66.67%

                                Blu-ray sales total spending: $33.15 million
                                DVD sales total spending: $66.32 million

                                These stats available from here:

                                Home Media Magazine



                                Top 10:

                                DVD revenue rose while Blu-ray revenue dropped compared to the previous week. The week's top seller was indeed a new release, and it was Goosebumps. It was only one of three new releases in the top 20, with the next new release sitting in 6th place, Downton Abbey: Season 6.

                                The final new release in the top 20 was Burnt in 15th.

                                So a relatively quiet week and Blu-ray revenue and market share responded likewise.

                                The complete top 10 chart is below (new releases in bold, and Blu-ray exclusives are denoted by *):
                                1. Goosebumps
                                2. Straight Outta Compton
                                3. The Martian
                                4. Hotel Transylvania 2
                                5. Minions
                                6. Downton Abbey: Season 6
                                7. Jurassic World
                                8. Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation
                                9. Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials
                                10. Everest


                                Blu-ray Sales Share:

                                BD sales share for a title is the percentage of disc packages sold for this movie that contained the Blu-ray edition of the film (including combos). So a BD sales share of 60% indicates that 60% of disc packages sold for this particular film contained the Blu-ray edition for this film, and so anything over 50% means that the Blu-ray version of the film was more popular than the DVD version.

                                None of this week's new releases made the BD sales share top 20, but 'Goosebumps' had the best result of the three new releases, with 46%. 'Burnt' and 'Downton Abbey: Season 6' managed 31% and 26%.

                                'Goosebumps' was also available on Blu-ray 3D, with a BD3D sales share of 7.17%.

                                DVD: $75.00 million
                                So very close to the year's first 'all red' week, but this week's ever slightly higher weekly market share figures saved the day (week)!

                                Blu-ray sales decreased by $2.52m (down 7.1%), while DVD sales decreased by $8.68m (down 11.6%) producing $11.2 million less in combined revenue.

                                Blu-ray's market share increased from 32.23% to 33.33%.
