I used to think this was unlikely to happen, and didn’t like how fragmented streaming services were… And I don’t watch enough TVs/movies to justify one or more subscription services.
So I’d just buy everything on YouTube. Figured I’d only buy it once so I paid extra for the 1080p. Then they decided to stop supporting anything over 480p on browsers that aren’t Safari. Watching 480p movies is a joke.
Apparently you’re only allowed 720p/1080p on phones/tablets (lol at watching a movie that small), smart TVs (why would I own a TV with this little TV consumption) or Safari (lol Macs).
I don’t even know what to do at this point. Go back to collecting DVDs? Think I’m just done watching movies.
Even then, your rights are limited. You can’t show it publicly, or make a copy except for personal backup, for instance.
Unskippable bullshit before you can even get the DVD to play cured me of my DVD buying habit.
Yeah I bought a cd once and it had fucking commercials for a bunch of shit.
Not if you just buy a digital streaming version. Then they can take it back anytime they want.

Or you could just sail the digital seas 🤷
I sail the seas, but I purchase 4K discs for any repeat watchers.
Well then that is not buying the DVD is it?
