Top 10:
Blu-ray revenue fell again to the lowest level since August 2009 (that's 2009, not 2019), and only $40,000 off the previous low. This was despite the release of The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It and Peter Rabbit 2 being this week's new releases.
"The Conjuring 3" managed a second-place finish, while "Peter Rabbit 2" got third.
Their respective multi-movie packs were also in the top 20, The Conjuring 3-Film Collection in 10th, Peter Rabbit Double Feature in 15th.
Despite these two somewhat big releases, Blu-ray revenue continued to slide into unprecedented territory.
This week's Ultra HD Blu-ray report: Both the single movie versions of "The Conjuring 3" and "Peter Rabbit 2" were available on 4K. 8 titles out of the top 10 had UHD editions.

Blu-ray, Ultra HD Blu-ray Sales Share:
For a particular title, the BD sales share is the percentage of disc packages sold for this title that contained the film's Blu-ray edition (including combos, and Ultra HD editions). 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 Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It" had a BD sales share of 52.21%, with "Peter Rabbit 2" getting only 44.48%.
On 4K, "The Conjuring 3" managed to get 11.86%, while "Peter Rabbit 2" struggled on 4K with only a 2% Ultra HD Blu-ray sales share.
