Such a blow for a BI4Ler. When budget allows I always pick up physical media of my favourite movies and shows.

figured this day would come. they start in one place then roll it out everywhere. i prefer to have a physical copy of my favorite movies. prevents the other side (in this case Disney) from removing my ability to watch the movie.

Exactly! I've also been enjoying watching the special features on movies that you don't get on streaming. I guess my local library will be the last stronghold for physical media 5 years from now

That's why I love physical, things like directors commentary. The most ridiculous part is it would be very easy to include that on streaming services as a language option. Other special features could be put on there as well. Don't see why they don't use it as an extra selling point.

It's just Disney's way of trying to buy you for life.
