It's just a shame that DVDs and Blu-Rays for new movies aren't really made anymore. They're just leaving money on the table at this point that bootleggers in Malaysia are getting instead.
But still, absolutely. DVD all the way. I fixed the cord I cut back in 2015 and I'm much better off for it.
Region zones do indeed suck, but I installed custom firmware on my PS3 to remove the DVD/Blu-Ray region lock, and now it's a non-issue.
And I use disc binders for most of my collection, unless it's something I really want to display. Long-term, once my collection is complete, I do plan to rip everything.

They come out with new releases all the time. Brick and mortar stores just don't always carry them. In the past year Target and Best Buy stopped. Here's a list of physical media that came out this week: https://www.blu-ray.com/news/?id=36930
Sounds dangerous, you could get a problem with copyrights with a name like that.
Have you heard of doing both? (^_-)
You should go to the flea market. No recent things but lots of choice for maximum 3€ the DVD.
Just use jellyfish or kodi
JVC still owns the trademark.

def couldn't use the logo, you'd at least get a c&d and likely followup court

Thought progress was always good? Think again
I'm like the OP. I watch it once.
If I want to watch it again, which hasn't been the case for over a decade:
Im like you. I'm a "give me new things".
it took me a few years to understand. Especially since I have a coworker who shared she plays the Office in the background, nearly every day for a few years.
It's comfort food for them. Why do some people play 1000+ hours of the same mobile games? Why do some people do those thousand piece puzzles?
It's just comfort and consistency.
Yep! It's how I learned about that Poop Cruise documentary. Or Tiger King. Or all the trash Isekai.
Things I would never walk into a store and just outright buy them. And if I did, it would be like $10-50 bucks, the price of the subscription.
I'm happy to favour things they are just not giving me a convenient way to give them money.
Except I didn't actually say that. I said that going to a physical location and getting a physical disk and then driving all the way back home is considerably less convenient than streaming content.
not everyone lives in countries with local libraries that have videos
Is MakeMKV still around?
I don't really think men look back anymore nowadays
Very much, yes.
