It is time to break up with your streaming service and return to your first love—physical media.
Over the past decade, streaming services have run supreme, training consumers to think they can watch what they want, when they want. Even if a film or show you want to watch isn’t available on one streaming service, it is likely available on another or available to purchase a digital copy.
Unfortunately, streaming services have been showing their teeth for a while, and I’m starting to worry.
After HBO Max yanked 68 more titles from its streaming service, removing some of the movies made for the streaming service completely from the public’s access, the return to physical media seems more important than ever.
