The first major commercial film with synchronized sound was ‘Don Juan’ in 1926. It used the Vitaphone, a sound-on-disk system.
By 1930, sound-on-disk had been entirely replaced by various sound-on-film systems. Sound-on-disk was totally abandoned until very recently. I believe one of the current competing digital systems is sound-on-disk. It has the advantage of being cheaper and requiring less equipment. It has the disadvantage that you have to ship disks around, as well as film reels, and presumably there’s room for operator error in matching the wrong disk to a reel.
