I’ve settled on buying physical media and ripping. The physical media serves as your backup in case of HD failure.
Do you think most people are going to do that?
I’d bet the vast majority of movie/show watching takes place in one’s home sitting in the sofa. More than willing to consider that I’m just an out of touch old guy though!
Yes, you are an old out of touch guy -- no offense the 74 in my name is the year I was born.
But kids especially watch a lot of movies on mobile. Most middle class adults prefer convenience over cheap and a combination of Disney+, Apple Arcade, and a $329 10.2 inch iPad in a ruggedized case or hand me down phone is a great babysitting device.
