"I suspect that most of the bargain basement DVD players being sold today won't last quite as long as the Atari 2600 and the Betamax VCRs. The Atari 2600 will likely run just fine even today. The Betamax VCR might need new belts but once those are replaced it'll run fine too." Apologies my point was too vague.
I am saying by 2015 DVDs will be passe tech like 2600s and Betamaxes.

Most likely.
I would, of course, expect whatever replaces the DVD player by 2015 to be capable of playing today's DVD discs.
