I want to meet the person 10 years down the line who will still have physical copies of a movie collection.

At this point, its still amazes me how many people collect movies. We were too broke when i was growing up to even afford a VCR-we all knew that person who had like 40 VHS tapes. Then 200 DVDs, and now Blu-rays.

i sitll have almost all VHS tapes and DVDs ive ever had, and now over 50 blu rays. i prefer to own the physical media. some compression from streaming services is still too noticeable to me, and at peak hours my internet connection can suck. also, streaming services lose rights to movies every few years, so some movies become unavailable. most of my movies, especially the blu rays, are of cult classics and foreign flicks that can be tough to get long after first publishing.

People that tout this cloud and DD shyt forget that Americas internet infrastructure is largely shyt.

Maybe where you live it isn't but for most of the country it's laughable. I'm just now getting 50M with TWC. And Verizon is about to stop it's FIOS rollout because it's costing them more money to actually build shyt out.

Yeah your Netflix is nice and crispy but in most of the country doing more than one thing on the same line at same time is recipe for destruction.

Gaming? Cool

Streaming video? Cool

Both at the same time? Lag + shytty quality

LOL @ streaming 4K video. We're at least 10-15 years away from that in this country and that's IF we can steal back the telecommunication industry from these corporations and have the peoples interests involved and not just profits. fukking Net Neutrality is eroding in front of your eyes too....careful...
