Ever since Paramount Plus, Tubi and Amazon Prime all kicked off, I stopped purchasing physical copies of movies. Most stores in this area have given up on selling Blu-Ray discs.

For the simple viewing pleasure I tend to agree…but as a person that sources media I find physical to be unparalleled. Many streaming services now block the ability to screenshot their media and this is frustrating! I have an ancient tablet that bypasses most blocks…but nothing compares to the ease and availability of physical copies.

I still have some dvds because I like having them on the shelf. I have no dvd player to play them on but that doesn't matter as I have no need to play them but I like having them there. I have a load of vinyl too that I can't play. Some things are just nice to have.

i resent the insult. i have "physical media" for practical and sentimental reasons. as Fugazi posted, Big Tech/The Streamers/whatevs, can disable, control, destroy anything digital. That's not a problem if I have my media in physical format. yes, i have terrabytes of music and movies so i'm not 100% independent.
i like reading and turning the pages. i also like to mark up stuff if ideas challenge me. and am incapable of interacting on a screen ,since i dont have any devices which allow that, when trying to do a math problem or physics.
so i enjoy the best of both options. -

I don't do the stream **** where I have spent years collecting what I have.
Vinyl, CDS, DVDs, and tapes for visual and audio.
So now I should just throw all of that away and start over again and spend even more money on something I already have?
Fuck that.
With a material thing it is a one time over and out expense where with that streaming **** you have to pay a monthly fee for however long to collect it plus there is the spending money on the devices and to pay to keep using those.
I am not a retard.
I would be if I was going to re-buy things I already bought and invest more in other media players when I already have them.
Now that is retarded.

First of all, it is not crap.
Second.
No.
Too much trouble.
I would have to buy those devices for streaming and I am just too lazy to do that.
It ain't broke so it don't need to be fixed.
