Love the video!! I only buy 4k I love on sale. That way I will be able to keep the movie forever. The rest I will just stream but I agree that eventually streaming will most likely take over the platform. Physical media will be purchased from true enthusiasts.

[jasonleetaiwan]

We need a combination of both. Streaming is great for casual viewing of a wider library. Physical media is for the best titles you always want to have.

I swore I’d never buy a physical disc again… but recently, after setting up my OLED tv and 5.1 surround sound, I tried a 4K disc and compared it to streaming… it was so much better, and I had an absolute blast.

My brother and I now do weekly movie nights where one of us buys a movie, and we watch it. It’s been awesome.

Also, I love the special features on these discs. The behind the scenes content is so fun to watch.

I will always be an advocate for physical media regardless if it is music, movies, video games or books. It’s just nice to have something tangible and ready at your disposable. Last month Comcast was having difficulties in my area and my internet was down for almost 2 days. Thank god I still had my blu rays to help with the boredom

I absolutely still buy physical media and will continue to. Streaming just cannot compare to the quality of what a physical disc provides. The visual aspect alone can be immediately noticed by someone who is not even into the home theater experience. I've gotten countless comments from friends on how a movie looks compared to how it looked when they've watched it at home via streaming. A few have even took to upgrading to a 4K player and now buying 4K movies they like to start their collection.

[thingshappen]

The answer is yes, physical media reigns supreme. Having an actual collection for guests and family to see, hold, read and reminisce is priceless. A platform can only show so much and the platform's taste is being forced on us. Once all these streamers have their own content ONLY, we'll be back to paying hundreds of $ for multiple services.

[STICKOMEDIA]

I just absolutely love having a feel of ownership and having the case with the artwork there for me to browse

[DanKeatis]

I still love buying and watching physical discs. For me, looking at the box art, taking the disc out and navigating the menu are part of the experience. That said, I've definitely noticed a huge leap forward in the quality of video streaming.

[kevinwillson]

I love the ease of streaming but I also love collecting my favorite films. I hate having to search 5 different streaming services for one movie, only to find it's something I have to rent or subscribe to a new service for.

[wesleytaylor]

After buying the new LG C1 and a Dolby Atmos surround setup, I instantly went back to Best Buy and picked up their best Blue Ray player and have been building my 4K disc collection since. DEFINITELY noticeably better on a disc!!!

[RZetlin]

With streaming services you don't own the movie. If Netflix, Disney+ or Hulu decides to stop offering a movie you have no say to keep it. With physical media that movie will always be with you.

[psychomoth]

It’s tough to beat the convenience of streaming, and it’s probably the best option for “casual” viewers without a higher-end setup. That said, physical media is still my go-to. A 4K disc on the right setup will blow you away. Plus, it’s pretty damn satisfying to look at on a shelf.

[endresee]

I just got into 4K blue rays and I am glad I did. For me it’s mostly about the mental shift away from streaming, which for me devalued my movie watching from something I do in an intentional way and really savor, to something I do reflexively and unthinkingly to pass time. I love owning my favorites and it gives me joy to see them on the shelf. Also, the special features on a lot of discs have really enhanced my enjoyment of the movies I watch, particularly classics, which have so much richness that I would have missed if I just watched them on a whim on a streaming service. But to each his own! I’m glad there’s a choice.

[walking_luggage]

I only buy physical media and I don't stream. I don't think streaming will ever overtake physical media. In fact I think the trend will reverse and physical media will sell much more than streaming. It is the same situation with books; years ago people predicted digital books would overtake physical books, but the trend reversed and physical books have over taken digital books. There is just something about owning the physical thing that appeal to the human nature and digital ownership just can't satisfy it.

[techcode_man]

No matter which streaming provider, the bit rate of audio and video content cannot match physical media. If you are an audio video freak like me, streaming will never cut it when it comes to audio and video perfection. 😎

Finally upgraded to a 4k qled tv, ps5, and a 2.1 klipsch system this year and got back into physical media. The 4k disc of Dune (2021) will change anyones mind on streaming vs. physical media. There is no comparison on the audio its just straight up better on disc. Streaming is awesome just for the amount of content you get access to for a low buy in; but for the best possible quality on my favorite films its just a no brainer i will make sure to find the 4k disc.

My kid loves Pacific Rim & I put it on for him recently on Netflix. I was STUNNED at how poor it looked compared with the 4K disc.

The quality IS that bad on streaming.

[SWATTECHNOLOGIES]

I am an ardent buyer of physical media. A good friend of mine who does not and streams everything got a hard dose of reality about streaming a couple of weeks ago when he suggested we sit down and watch a Star Trek TOS episode. There he looked. Hulu? Gone. Amazon? Gone. Netflix? TOS gone. He was flabbergasted. I own all remasters of TOS and TNG knowing this was going to be the future. He did not...until now.

[justynchris]

Absolutely I still do. There is so much they can put on a disc vs streaming that it's still worth it to me. Nothing more disappointing then compromised sound or picture quality via streaming.

[Anytyme]

Regardless of the quality, the disk will almost always be a better choice because the movies on the stream will not always be there. Eventually they will be taken off the service. Your physical collection will still be there.
