In early 2010, I had heard a little something about DVDs not being mass-produced.
There are times when I'm looking at older movies, and there'll be a disclaimer, "This will only be produced if you are purchasing it". Since I heard that, I got in gear with buying movies and TV series. I don't know why, but I love owning TV series.
A lot of people now believe that physical media (such as CDs and DVDs/BDs) have gone the way of the dinosaur. This fiction is being promoted by some huge corporate media megaliths that want you to get rid of anything you have in the way of physical media and just sign up for subscription services that you'll pay for for the rest of your life.
We have such *&^$%*^ lousy internet, that there's A L O T of times that I'm happy with my DVDs.
I won't stop buying them, but, I can see them 'switching' to something like a USB.
