Translation: Netflix can’t be fucked dealing with the waste, so you can deal it.

The fact that we’re even still using fucking dvds is baffling.

How much room is there on this planet to allow everyone to have everything and anything they want.

It’s psychotic and it’s why the upcoming decades are going to be especially rough

Some places are very remote and have bad internet. Some people like the special features on DVD. There are movies only available on DVD that aren’t streaming or on Blu-Rays. Some DVDs contain the original edits or music recordings that have since been changed.

Lot’s of reasons some people still use DVDs.

Oh yeah I’m not blaming the consumer (this time!) but the producers themselves.

All of that content could be provided digitally if we only took internet architecture and that sort of stuff seriously.

We could eliminate a lot of the need for physicality if we improved digital infra

There’s a lot more people than just the producers to blame when it comes to licensing and digitizing of content. Every record label and musician used, actors royalties, director royalties. Lots of people can make it unprofitable to digitize content, because it does cost money to store and host TV and movies just for server costs, so some profit has to be generated to incentivize it.
