  • I got tired of blu rays somehow:

    • trailers at the beginning (skippable)
    • copyright and and piracy warning (non skippabale)
    • usually no english subs for blu rays bought in germany (original english sound though)
    • got one with really bad quality and other versions on the internet looked way better (original the hills have eyes)
    • wanted to lend a friend without a blu ray player a few by giving him my old laptop with a blu ray drive. No proper software to play it without fiddeling under linux
    • resources and plastic cases (started buying used - but then if it’s a really good movie the studio won’t receive any support for it)
    • players will need updates to be able to handle new encryption keys (never ran into it though bc I keep my PS updated)

    Pros:

    • the collection looks nice in the shelf
    • picking up a movie is usually easier for me than on netflix
    • I watched the bonus material after the movie which was often interesting
