    It really was nice while streaming lasted. Shame these companies continually allow greed to drive me back into the arms of piracy.

      ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ piracy is better anyway, I want full bitrate digital copies not compressed garbage.

      Such a shame high bitrate full quality movies/TV shows will semi fade away as these asshole companies only stream their movies at 7 gigs an hour and never release physical media.

        40GB Pirates of the Caribbean just hits differently. The black pearl coming out of an actual mist and not layers of gray that slowly recede because of compression is very awesome. FullHD with proper bitrate is enough for my 2m projector image, too.

          100% It boggles my mind that very apparent compression artifacts don’t bother the average consumer.

          I guess if you don’t know what it is, you can’t realize it is a flaw.

          This is one reason why I still buy blu-rays and 4k blu-rays. I’m not a fan of downloading torrents that large, but I can get Criterion Collection blu-rays regularly on sale for $15-$20.

          And for newer movies, like the Dune films, I was able to get 4k blu-rays for like $15

      I remember when an older netflix ceo talked about never having ads on the platform, there was some high and mighty principle about it… But then money!

      I may or may not have done this but even with a 1Gbps fiber connection sometimes it still buffers a lot. :(

    I went back to sailing 6 months ago and dropped Netflix and Prime. I can get free shipping most anywhere now, but it’s usually slow to get here. When I tried to watch a show on Prime and got ads as frequently as basic cable I was done.

      My original reason to get Prime was that I was building a PC and the no-fuss returns policy seemed like good insurance against faulty parts. Some sellers blame problems on the customer or otherwise drag their feet on returns. TBH I hardly watch Prime anymore, but the ads really are annoying. It’s like “Oh sorry, the pitted olives will have pits from now on.”

      I want a digital format that i can store locally. I think i’m forced to buy blu-rays and a blu-ray drive.

            You also need the right Bluray drive that can be re-flashed before you can extract the contents. If only it was as easy as DVDs.

                There are guides out there to do it or you can just buy one that’s already been flashed to bypass DRM. I bought one 5 or 6 years ago to do it and quit after maybe 10 Blu-rays because it takes forever if you want to compress via handbrake and it’s much easier just to torrent directly unless it’s something obscure.

            Ah. Yes. Sorry. I missed that. I started with DVDs, since mine came with a reader. Haven’t moved to blu-ray, yet, for the same reason.

      I’ve come to the conclusion that some people would be satisfied with an entertainment technology that does nothing but display ads. And it probably like 10% of the population.

        This has existed for decades in the form of a game show called “The Price is Right”. It’s obscene that they break away to commercials when the show itself is just an endless parade of consumer products presented by beautiful humans.
