    I miss some of those great DVD extras.

    In the movie, Robert Downey Jr's said he didn't break character until he finished do the DVD commentary. He was in character when he did the DVD commentary.

    There was a special edition of Buckaroo Banzai with an onscreen commentary that pointed out that Buckaroo was carrying Einstein's brain with him when he entered dimension 8

    edit = the movie was 'Tropic Thunder.'

    You meant to put the bittorrent symbol on the red girl.

    We're running out of safe havens to host, I feel. Countries that won't submit to the industry's will. With the additional clamping down on material not government-sanctioned recently, with invasive biometric and ID checks, it certainly feels like the wrong direction.

    That must mean you have the original Lilo & Stitch.

    Excellent.

    They tried to kill piracy so many times, and it never worked.

    They will try again and fail again. And the best of it is that sales won't go up anyway because the problem is not piracy, is their own greed.

    If they somehow manage to completely kill piracy, I won't be able to pay for every streaming service anyway because I don't have the time to enjoy them all nor I think they are worth my money at all.

    There’s only so many times I want to watch the same movie, so my library would be limited

    We need Bluray/DVD rental stores back.

    I want to be in the room when they plug that VCR into a 70-in TV and hit play just to see their faces.

    Missed opportunity IMO there should totally be a piracy product or site called VHS

    I have a media converter made from a raspberry pi I use for all of my old consoles so I can play them on modern TVs. I bet it would work great for vhs tapes as well. Tape degradation might be a different issue though...

    I started building an all-BluRay collection back in 2018. I saw the writing on the wall when I would go to watch a movie with friends on streaming and it would be gone.

    Almost all of my favorite movies are mine now. I see a lot of comments talking about pirating, but for me personally, the display I get and being able to just have guests grab from the wall is a lot cooler than scrolling.

    Not to mention, some of them are quite collectible. It’s neat having some movies that are really rare and I know I had to work to find them.

    There are some still around believe it or not. There's one local to me that's been around forever. They don't have anything that's exclusive to streaming services, but that have loads of new movies and a massive collection of old movies. They're pretty handy to get movies that are in limbo due to rights disputes.
