Answer
It's pretty much your call.
As long as people buy DVDs, they'll sell DVDs. BDs are growing in popularity, but they're still distant compared to DVDs. Most people who buy a Blu-Ray player today just get one, while they probably have a bunch of other DVD players in the house (kids, PCs, car, portable, etc).. so there's some value in buying DVDs yet to some people.
Because it's unlikely anyone could sell a BD player that didn't play DVDs, they all pretty much do. That capability isn't going away any time soon, if ever.. in fact, since BD is really a superset of DVD (MPEG-2, AC-3, DTS, PCM, etc. are still supported on BD, so the only cost savings removing DVD would be in the licensing... even the red laser subassembly is so cheap, it's likely lost in the noise floor.
So your investment in DVDs is sound. BD won, and it's moving fast, so I don't think that's a risk (but it was, pretty much, before January, when Toshiba was a competition). If it does ok or totally takes over depends on many things, including how long it is until we have a $25 BD player. I think it's really you call.
I buy most new stuff on BD, but still buy super-cheap and used DVDs for films that I might have rented but wouldn't have bothered with on BD.
It's funny that even films shot on mini-DV camcorders (standard definition), like "28 Days Later" and "Cloverfield" are showing up on Blu-Ray... you don't absolutely need BD for every title. But there are some films I just can't watch in SD anymore...

Is there any money in broken electronics? I have a broken laptop, portable dvd, camera, and more...?

Camera has original box/manuals/ect., dvd player has all the cords, amost like new but sometimes doesn't play or stops playing, laptop is shot fan broke and overheated. Are there people that buy these things? and/or company that has incentive programs? Or should I just send it to a recycling center?
Answer
Your laptop will be worth something to someone on Ebay since it is likely to still have usable parts such as the screen, case, power supply, battery, and possibly memory and WiFi card. I would strongly suggest removing the hard drive since it may contain recoverable personal information that you wouldn't want to fall into the wrong hands. Include the hard drive carrier (tray), any adapter/connector that may be plugged into the drive and screws with the sale.
Your camera may also have some value as parts on Ebay depending on what model it is.
Your DVD player probably doesn't have much residual value, although it may only need to have a simple lens cleaning.
You can make someone very happy with any of your items by offering them as-is on a Freecycle group that operates in your area. The link below will help you find one or more of the nearly 5000 local groups that are active worldwide. I give away computers on a regular basis to members of the groups that I participate in. I can't place a value on all the new friends I've made.
