Buena Vista Home Entertainment, Inc.[b],[3] doing business as Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment, is the home entertainment distribution arm of the Walt Disney Company. The division handles the distribution of Disney's films, television series, and other audiovisual content across digital formats and platforms. Until the early 2020s, the division also handled distribution of those properties in several traditional home media formats, such as Ultra HD Blu-ray, Blu-ray discs, and DVDs under various brand labels around the world.

The division was legally incorporated as Buena Vista Home Video on February 13, 1987.[4] It was renamed to its current legal name in 1997,[3] although it is currently known in the UK as Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment (UK & Ireland) since 2013.[c] The division adopted the current Walt Disney Studios-branding in its public name in 2007, but kept the Buena Vista-branding for corporate use.[5]

In recent years, sales in the physical media market have significantly fallen due to the rise of digital media and streaming services like Disney's own Disney+, which has led the company to either let other home video distributors (such as Elevation Sales and Sony Pictures Home Entertainment) handle distribution for them or exit out of the market depending on the region.
