Content Availability: Streaming services frequently remove movies and TV shows from their libraries, often leaving viewers without access to their favorite content. Physical media ensures you have permanent access to the titles you love
Offline Access: Unlike streaming services, which require a stable internet connection, physical media can be enjoyed without any connectivity. This is particularly useful during internet outages or in areas with unreliable service
Cost-Effective: Purchasing DVDs and Blu-rays can be more economical than ongoing subscription fees. For example, buying a complete series on disc may cost less than a few months of a streaming service subscription
Sharing and Lending: Physical media allows you to lend or share your collection with friends and family, something that streaming services generally restrict. You can also donate or exchange discs with others
Special Features: DVDs and Blu-rays often come with exclusive bonus content, such as behind-the-scenes footage, deleted scenes, and commentaries. Streaming services rarely offer these extras, so if you're a fan of special features
Ownership and Control: With physical media, you own a tangible copy of your favorite movies and TV shows. This contrasts with digital rentals or purchases, which can be subject to changes in licensing agreements
Collector's Value: Many physical media collections have collector’s value and can become cherished keepsakes. Special edition releases, rare finds, and complete series sets can be valuable both personally and financially
