Etymology

The DVD, or Digital Versatile Disc, was developed in the late 1990s as a replacement for the VHS format. It offered higher storage capacity, better quality, and more durability than VHS tapes. DVDs quickly became popular for distributing movies, TV shows, and other multimedia content. The DVD format continued to evolve with the introduction of dual-layer discs and writable DVDs. However, with the rise of digital streaming services, the popularity of DVDs has declined in recent years.
