I can't tell you how many times I've had to defend my passion of buying physical media to people who simply stream all their media content. People have loss all appreciation for the power of ownership and true lossless media. Why solely allow large corporations to dictate what media you consume? I truly do think the consequences of exclusively ''renting'' media will do more harm than good for the future of humanity.

@TheWellRoundedDude 3 года назад

Agreed! Streaming has its time and place, but I still want physical media. Thanks for watching!

I buy what I call 'die hard' films and stream the rest. The ones you watch again and again. Matrix in 4k is amazing as is suicide squad.

also when the internet gets interrupted it can mess up the quality of the movie and/or tv show, or the quality seems to fluctuate if the media has not loaded enough yet, with physical you don't have to worry about that :)

Great video. I'm a 20-years old anime and movie collector and like other people have written in the comment section before, I too have to defend that passion of mine. Streaming may have its advantages, but it will never be as good as putting in a disc, falling into that world of that menu while you browse the menu, start the film... and you get to see the ending credits without getting interrupted by Netflix "Hey, do you want to watch this next?" after 5 seconds in. Thanks for listing the pros, I fully agree.

@Commonpeople73 Год назад

As someone who has been surrounded by DVDs since I was able to walk, I can say that I love physical media and im very disappointed its not used in everyday life anymore. My mother was poor and couldnt afford internet and the cable often went unpaid so DVDs were the norm despite the internet being used by so many households, I was born around when DVDs were going through their downfall during The Great Recession so DVDs were very cheap and easy to get a hold of, me and my brothers loved them! watched them day in and day out on our dvd player and went down to Xtravision (blockbusters) once a week for a rental and let me just say it was the highlight of the week. Now that everything is online and the cinema industry is even facing a downfall I just want to say I am very upset at the way the world now treats physical media. Physical media, whether its VHS, CDS or DVDs will always be the superior format and no one can convince me otherwise.

@TheWellRoundedDude Год назад

Just a few day's ago I was watching wanna of my favorite movies growing up gladiator on 4k. And I did noticed the difference Netflix vs physical. While I was watching my movie, I was shocked & surprised at the same time. That's when I said , wow, physical is a lot better then Streaming Services.

@TheMJKnight Год назад

My dude, I have been saying stuff very similar to this for years. Another good point is: internet outage. If the Net goes out, streaming is useless. Streaming is good if you've never a movie before and want to see what it's like and then buy the Blu-ray. Not a problem with that. But if you want to keep your movie, support the physical release. And I apologise for the crassness of this expression, but it speaks volumes: Money talks and bulls**t walks. Keep getting physical to make money, they'll make more of it. Also, Physical Media accounts for at least $2 Billion worth of revenue. Streaming takes a $1 Trillion. But $2 Billion is still $2 Billion.

@TheWellRoundedDude Год назад

Spot on dude, thank you. I agree 100%

@michaelharrington4503 Год назад

Actually, physical media that you have can be taken away from you. I remember one time years ago (long before streaming was even a thing and we were still using VHS tapes), we went out for a while, and when we came back, our house was broken into, and many things were taken away! Among the items taken was my Super Nintendo (which actually didn't belong to me, but to my grandmother who was letting me borrow it for a while) and all the games that came with it. Those were all physical copies, but they still got pulled.

@TheWellRoundedDude Год назад

I'm sorry that happened to you, but that's theft. Which is illegal. Not the kind of takeaway we were discussing in the video.

@eternalfire580 2 года назад

Don't forget the part where you need a internet connection at all times but with physical media you never need an internet connection. Also don't use the argument that you can download media from the streaming service I know you can do that but 1. you still need to pay a monthly fee in order to watch your downloaded media 2. You always have to use their app to watch downloaded media and 3. Some streaming services don't even allow you to download media for offline viewing unless you pay for a more expensive subscription

@TheWellRoundedDude 2 года назад

@Stringbean421 2 года назад

@dannypoo3281 2 года назад

I've started going to my local thrift shop and picking up DVD's. Some DVD's look great, others appear far too compressed. The worst seem to be ones presented in a very wide screen format. The closer they get to a standard TV 16:9, or old full screen 4:3 format the better they (often, not always) look in regards to resolution and detail. I'd love for someone to explain why this happens?

@TheWellRoundedDude 2 года назад

My guess would be that they are older dvds and the movie would have been filmed in standard 4:3 ratio. So its in its natural resolution on dvd, that might be why. But that's just a guess. Thanks for watching!

@ThirdEye_oOo 2 года назад

Prime video is really bad at 4k (film grain dances around the screen, HDR looks completely off) to the point where I'd rather watch 1080p if it would let me. Netflix has actually done a decent job with its 4k VISUAL presentations (with the most noticeable issue being banding) but nothing compares to physical disc for video and especially audio

I agree 100% I have a Dobly Atmos surround sound system and I popped in Godzilla (2014) on Blu Ray vs streaming on Hbo max and the difference is insane. The deep rumble sounds are louder and more punchy vs flat sounding and blending with smaller sounds when streaming it. Don't even have to move the volume to hear the difference. Highly recommend physical media when using surround sound system.

I AM MY OWN STREAMING SERVICE!! As I type I own 573 DVD's, Blue Ray's and 4k's. Not the largest collection in the world, but not tiny either. And they are all in a media tower that occupies a 2' x 2' space on my floor, almost 6 feet high....and I NEVER worry if a streaming service edits a film (for woke political correctness or any other reason) or drops it all together.... There is a freedom about owning these movies, And there is a bit of also being an archivist as well. Although I have great internet, its not at all a concern when I watch a film. And Top Gun 2 sounds AMAZING on my 7.2 Atmos system with speakers in the ceiling.... There is ZERO comparison to owning vs. streaming. I do not at all ascribe to the idea of "you will own nothing and be happy for it"...the only ones who believe this are those who can't.....just my two cents worth.....

These apples to oranges comparisons are dishonest and misleading.

@TheWellRoundedDude 2 года назад

Well respectfully, I disagree. What I stated in the video is true. But what you're suggesting can be more of a headache and costly. An uncompressed 1080p file takes up a lot of space on a hard drive, not to mention 4k files, I personally have a large movie collection, what size/how many drives am I gonna need for a 300 plus movie collection, not to mention TV seasons. That starts to get expensive real quick. Not to mention if a hard drive fails, you lose your files. This is why physical media is better. It's more cost effective and reliable to the method you are suggesting. So to be clear, I'm not against what you're saying, but it adds a bunch of cost and complication to just enjoy a movie and that's not worth it to me. Thanks for watching.
