Blu-ray never surpassed DVD as a format, just like 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray doesn't have a shot at surpassing DVD or Blu-ray.
VHS to DVD was a clear form factor change. We just keep getting discs.
Blu-ray is better than DVD in a lot of ways. But as @SvennoJ said there are still tons of unskippable splash and warning screens and sometimes longer loading times.
Way more Blu-rays are region-free, which is great. They are also more durable than DVDs.
Blu-ray is probably my overall favorite format because 4K UHD is overkill sometimes and often doesn't have special features on the 4K UHD disc.
Blu-ray helped Sony in the long-term but it nearly killed PS3 at first considering its high cost.
