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:

1. Find the physical version. Often at a thrift store
2. Sail the open seas

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.

I guess it's not technically a new movie, but I just bought the 4k blu ray rerelease of Dark City that came out this year. So there are still some new releases in the format.

While not a gurantee, they are not VC-founded which helps a lot.
