I watched my first home BlueRay disc two days ago.
Someone brought it round and I remembered that my PS4 could play them. To do so it had to connect to the internet. (Tracking/Logging maybe?)
Like the scene in the Sooranos where the wives come round to watch a DVD, it forced me to sit through those "FBI yada yada even though you don't live in America" and "personal opinions of the cast blah blah" disclaimers before for the film would start.
Haven't had to see those since streaming services became available.
Also reminded me that if I'd pirated the film I would have had a better experience than purchasing the legitimate product.
Streaming services are saving the movie industry from itself.
