re: #241 BeachDem

And some of my favorite series are not on any streaming service, so I own boxed sets of DVDs. (I also listen to CDs in my car—hey, I’m old and so is my car)

What I don’t get is why people look at it as a badge of honor to not have DVDs, or CDs, or televisions, or checkbooks. Honestly, in my experience, it does not make them superior beings.

It just makes you vulnerable to losing your media you paid for if the service goes under or does something underhanded. b-boy bouiebaisse at blue sky pointed that out a couple weeks ago when a bunch of customers lost media they had bought to own on a small platform. He makes a point of buying high end Blu-ray of movies he likes likes. I’m getting the Dune 1 and 2 combo pack on Monday.
