I might be asking a rhetorical question here but I was curious as to the overall consensus on physical media. Do support it because, unlike streaming, media can’t take away what you’ve payed for? or are you against because it’s a waste of money when you can “acquire” it through “alternative means?” I’m also thinking about getting a 4K Blu Ray player for when my wife and I get a new place; preferably one that can also play self hosted media. What do you guys think?
Right, I got my movies, music on my storage so I own it. Of course it wasn’t free, I’d to pay with electricity, internet service provider costs. I don’t have space to keep set of dvd/bluray/cd’s wherein a single hdd/ssd can hold all of that data. Most of the new content is mostly crap nowadays. I won’t pay a dime for it. So yeah will sail the high seas and get my content as long as the options are available to me.
So don’t watch it if it’s crap? Or stop trying to justify piracy to yourself, we’re all here for similar reasons.
