blu-rays are consistently like £15 each or less and they're the highest quality versions of that piece of content and are packed with bonuses and you keep them literally forever and can copy them and share them and give them to friends and then re-sell them when you don't want them anymore and do whatever you want with them. you can also digitally rent a movie for as little as £5

remind me again why people are paying £16 every single month to scroll through netflix and end up watching nothing because they're overwhelmed with all the bad movies?

and that's not even mentioning the people who pay for more than 1 streaming service at a time. i know a lot of people personally that have netflix, prime video, and disney+, all at the same time. that shit costs £33 every single month, or almost £400 every year, or almost £2000 for 5 years. and what do you have to show for all that money you pumped into the drm-ridden shithole services? nothing. you keep nothing.

if you spent £2000 on blu-rays over 5 years you'd have like 150 movies with all of the benefits i mentioned earlier. you don't need an internet connection to watch them, they're ridiculously high quality, you can rip them and copy them to put them on jellyfin or send to a friend, you can physically give the disc to a friend so they can watch it, and then you can sell them when you get tired of them. you can't do any of these things with netflix. i don't get it, man :/
