📀 DVD

A digital versatile disc (DVD), a type of optical disc used to play movies before the rise of streaming technology. Generally depicted in gold, though Facebook’s is bluish gray, as a Blu-ray.

Commonly used to represent CDs, DVDs, Blu-rays, and related film and music content, especially albums.

Google, Microsoft, Samsung, and Softbank’s designs were once labelled DVD, as to distinguish it from 💿 Optical Disk.
