RIP YOUR DVD COLLECTION FOLKS

Wanted to watch Aliens, the disc plays OK but makes a horrible grinding sound. "OK fine," thinks I, "I'll watch it via other means," well my friends the other means are really really bad

"Oh cool there was a remaster this year" yeah they overexposed it and washed it all out, and as if that wasn't enough they AI'd it and everyone's got weird plastic skin

"Well butts, how about the blu-ray release from the early 2010's," well they didn't AI it yet but they did bollocks up the colours and made it all green because that was a thing in the 2010's

Rip your own DVDs folks 'cause if that DVD starts having problems you might not be able to find a copy amid a sea of gradually deteriorating versions

"I'll just pirate it, yo ho ho!" no you bloody won't, the pirates have rips of the crap blu-rays, who the hell still seeds DVD rips

Good luck sorting out a hundred different ALIENS 1986 torrents to figure out which are the AI-shitty ones and which are only the teal-shitty ones when half of them don't even mention whether they're the proper full length film or the crappy theatrical version where they cut out Ripley's entire daughter

Piracy won't help here, that was the whole point of the post

Rip your DVDs

@ifixcoinops I mean it really depends on the tracker, some allow you to filter for DVD und also things like remaster and stuff...
