My son and we as his parents really love Bluey, but it's impossible to buy a DVD set here in Germany, with German dub, because Disney distributes it exclusively through their plus platform.

There are many more examples like these. Very sad state of affairs.

Netflix does that too. It’s very annoying to know some things will never have a Dvd/Blu-ray release.

You can download a DVD set, for free.
