Streaming has ruined movies. These platforms underpriced their product for years to shift everyone to streaming from physical. Now the price hikes are out of control for content that is the old "Direct-to-Video/VHS/DVD" model. Everyone knew those movies were subpar, and now it's becoming the norm content.

Not to mention as physical disappears, "your" library is at the mercy of the platform. People complain Star Wars has been post-edited many times over altering the originals. Han vs. Greedo. It's very troubling what an all-streaming world means—censorship of movies. There's no copy to say otherwise. And then Disney and HBO and Netflix are purging their libraries to save money not paying royalties/license fees. So there are simply movies no one will ever be able to see again.

I'll keep renting from Redbox and purchase physical movies for my collection, and enjoying the superior picture and sound quality. Enjoy the $50 Netflix sub.

I'm convinced all these digital movies people are buying to "own" will have their libraries purged. Those servers cost money to maintain, and will go the way of physical ownership. These companies aren't going to host indefinitely for free your movies you bought years ago. They'll shift you over to their streaming platforms. You'll be renting all of your entertainment each month. Paywalled like crazy. You'll need 5 subscriptions to watch the movies you used to just own, or rent for $1 from Redbox/Blockbuster.

Streaming: the biggest con in entertainment that people blindly embraced.

Seems like just 3 weeks ago the stars from Dungeons and Dragons, Renfield and the Fast furious were all over TV promoting their movies.

Now they're available on home video already? These studios are shooting themselves in the foot.

Edit- Nevermind. I just tried to watch D&D. I understand why it's on Redbox already.

Wow, I forgot Redbox was still a thing! How do they not have 4K Bluerays as an option. Why would I drive back and forth to a store to pick up a 1080p Blueray when I could steam in 4K at home without leaving my living room? 4K Blueray would be superior to streaming though and I would go through the hassle of pick up Redbox movies if they had them. Redbox is apparently trying to be the next Blockbuster.

Thanks, and repped!

Selection was underwhelming. Never understand why redbox doesn't include a few vintage goodies in the offerings.

Should try it sometime. I noticed 24 hour streaming rentals are standard $5.99. Streaming is turning into being the least consumer-friendly debacle consumers naively flocked to. Not to mention streaming subscriptions are a wasteland of direct-to-TV content quality.

When people talk about the inconvenience of physical media, they of course neglect to mention the half hour they spend scrolling through Netflix bored out of their minds from the quality of options, or lack thereof, and having to settle on their best choice available, which wasn't even something they wanted to begin with.

They do have 4k in select areas. Mostly rich neighborhoods probably due to more demand (??)

I would but I don't have any DVD/Bluray players anymore. I thought these went obsolete.

Music vinyls are making a comeback despite mp3s and music subscription services being normalized

Could be the same with video in the future

I swear I spend so much time just adding movies to my watch list. Then after all that time, I've wasted nearly an hour because nothing is usually that good. Just a bunch of, ehh flicks.

I kept my old original PS3, Gran Turismo and steering wheel. Who knew I would need to practice learning to drive again at 39 after having a TBI?

Old tech comes in handy sometimes.

Who knows maybe one day I'll get back to it and get that platinum trophy 🏆😀. Only got to get half more of the cars.

No PS4 or Xbox? Just use those instead of your TV apps or plugins.

I just found a stack of VHS tapes. Good thing I still have a VCR hooked up to my home theater receiver. Been watching to see what's on those old tapes. laugh out loud I also have a cassette deck, turntable and wait for it... an 8-track player that works!
