They'll never come back because studios will never release new movies on them.
Piracy is coming back strong, but I don't personally see myself going back to burning DVDs instead of buying HDD/SSDs.
I mean, you're still able to buy the Star Wars shows on Blu-ray, so physical disks for video content might remain just like people but vinyls as a collectors item. DVDs will be for old content only, but there are still so many that they may nevertheless become popular again.
