“To look at people in capitalist society and conclude that human nature is egoism is like looking at people in a factory where pollution is destroying their lungs and saying that it is human nature to cough”

  • most of the stuff I would point to is surprisingly up just with zero seeds, so they are probably out there on private trackers.

    Was not expecting an Anthony Hopkins movie to give a null result thought Blunt the fourth man

    Not even on his IMDB page which is strange.

    I feel like throwing golden age musicals at you would be cheating because no one actually cares about musicals :P

  • they will eventually stop getting my money then.

    I have a lot of straight to DVD B movies but I also have a lot of 4k steel books. Collectors are worth significantly more to the studios than they seem to realise. people who want the quality of physical media aren't going to settle for streaming over the internet.

  • I have a lot of DVDs that are not currently to be found on the high seas, there are certain things I would upgrade to blu ray at the right price but for the most part you have different masters or cuts or colour grading and there are certainly things recorded in SD that are never getting a blu ray release, like concerts or other live events, because there is no high def master. I even buy concerts on VHS when I find them.

    I'm a firm believer in physical media even if that media is a spinning disk in my NAS.

    My physical media collection isn't replacing streaming, jellyfin is.

  • Thrift stores for less than a dollar each usually in 10 for $5 type deals. multi disc sets are your friend and sometimes they don't differentiate between DVD and blue ray either, I've got quite a few blu rays this way.

    DVDs are where VHS was about a decade ago, get what you can while it's cheap. I even got a pile for free when a pawn shop was dumping stock to get out of the market.

    Also DVDs are still being pressed because there's no licensing fee on the format so it's still profitable to make new ones.

  • For the yearly cost of a single streaming service I could buy more DVDs than I could ever watch.

    Did you know you can borrow DVDs from the library ... for free.

    I would never waste another cent on streaming, the value proposition got flushed down the toilet when every single studio got into the game.
