these days i only buy dvds for criterions (come with a nice little book) or for movies i cant find online for whatever reason

I think the average person probably doesn’t have the A/V setup to make huge difference. 4K doesn’t mean shyt if you’re running a 720p TV from 2009.

fukk them then

I buy box sets of complete animated series I grew up watching. Next up is Jem and the Holograms

I seriously can’t believe it’s so high. Blu been here since 2005/2006? DVDs were late 90s? That’s not that far apart, and Definitely worth the upgrade.

Hell, I didn’t jump on to blu/HD until 2011.

If Covid leads to the end of physical media....

I refuse to stream.

EDIT: Wait, it says 4ks. What about blus?

 

[Tommy Fits]

Get on the streaming wave, fukk getting off the couch to change disc

That said I made sure to have my favorite shows on disc in case they get removed...cept parks and rec, it's only in DVD, 480P

I stopped buying physical movies altogether yrs ago. I was thinking about getting into 4k blu ray with PS5, but it’s going this route, I’ll stick to torrents and streaming I was on OG blu ray tough, but once I needed another player for 4k I quit physical movies. Haven’t bought a DVD since the video rental went out of business in my college town

I own a lot of blu-rays and 4k blu-rays. I want the best picture I can get with amazing sound and bonus features. I will still buy from Criterion Collection, Arrow Video, and other boutique labels. Unfortunately Disney took Fox off the market for old movie releases so Disney can fukk off.

disney forcing everyone to disney+, which can't compete with netflix

 

[nieman]

I'm about to double up on some of the Disney's just because. I know I need another GArgoyles S1, to have in the stash from wear & tear. I need a Fantasia & Oliver & Company too
