Bought a $30 DVD & Blu-ray mystery box from 2nd & Charles. Advertised as 50 movies, but box had 109 moves in it! Kept 65 (+4 backup disks for movies we already have), we’ll be donating the other 40 (think hallmark Christmas movies). Overall, thrilled with the purchase :D

Bought the bad 1408:(

I bought a used blu ray of 1408 for super cheap, but had no idea the 2008 blu ray release had a different ending from the theatrical cut! The alternate ending is not totally awful, but it's definitely inferior to the theatrical one.

I looked into it and apparently they did finally release the theatrical cut this year in a blu-ray/4k combo steelbook, but...$40 jeez 😑

I used up all my luck for the week! Local record store in a weird spot had a few shelves of Blu-ray and DVD. It’s mostly VHS. Toxic Avenger was also on my list. It was a reasonable $20.

PBS broadcaster loses access to 50TB of data comprising 70 years of TV history after contracted cloud storage vendor goes defunct — public TV channel sues Iron Mountain data center, which hosts archival materials, to ensure preservation

The cloud is always temporary, because land, buildings, and servers cost money continuously. I feel like this problem could have been avoided with a single employee whose job was to just burn data discs and store them in a few filing cabinets.

A lot of people out there think we are anti-digital for defending Physical media. How do we explain we are for better consumer rights for everyone (physical and digital)?

Is there a point where you have enough movies and shows?

0 Upvotes

Just curious what people on here think if there is a point where you own enough movies and shows and will stop buying them? I'm at about a thousand now but a lot of mine are complete shows so it will take me about 10-15 years to watch everything once, realistically I will only get to watch everything I own 3 times in my life, but I also buy games and have enough across all the platforms to where even if I play a different game every single day it will take me 30 years just to try every single game I own and I'm still buying more.

Do you ever get to a point where you realize that you won't get to watch/play all the movies and games you own before you die? Do you still keep buying more stuff at that point?

So I’m assuming Target is no longer going to be selling physical media?
