I watch the new era of Doctor Who on DVD as I bought them.
There are 19 Marvel movies I want to see this month. Netflix has them on DVD. Also a few DC EU movies I haven't bought. |
I'm surprised that anyone would still use DVDs when you have Blu-rays. I don't buy DVDs anymore unless it's not on Blu-ray like with some older anime and obscure horror films.

I'm catching as many movies as possible on DVD before the new ones are Blu exclusive. Hopefully I can finish the MCU line this and next month. All current MCU movies are DVD. Including both Venom movies. Waiting on Suicide Squad re up.

dvds cheaper most of the time

I only buy home video if it's a film/series I really love and/or something I'm gonna watch over and over again. Anything else I'm find just finding on stream or on the internet. Even with digital releases, I still like getting a physical disks

Doctor Who Generation II (Rose - Flux Part 6) is on Netflix. Flux has yet to get on Netflix. (Disk rentals) Stream on this is HBO Max and AMC +
Doctor Who Generation I (An Unearthly Child Parts 1 - 4 - Doctor Who The Movie) is on Brit Box but there are some disk releases for them. In March I want to try to phase them in starting with The Beginning (Story 001 - Story 003). I got delayed for this due to Revolution Of The Daleks and Flux to buy this month. |

At this point, I don't see why people buy physical movies aside from for collection purposes. But even then, I don't see why a collector would choose a DVD over other formats. Blu-ray looks better, VHS and laserdisc are rarer and have more vintage appeal, etc. Heck, everything streams in HD these days, so why would somebody pay $20 for a physical edition of something that looks worse than what you can see streaming? I guess people can do what they want, and I'm not trying to shame you or anybody else for collecting DVDS...I just don't get it, I guess. |

- There isn't a genuine streaming home at the time. Takes a long time for somethings to find a streaming service. I only just learned that "Freddy's Nightmares", an '80s series which hasn't had decent home releases ever, will now have a streaming home after all this time. - There isn't a Blu-ray release at the time, which pertains more to out-of-print series and/or movies. The only "official" streaming home is a "free-but-with-ads" model, which can piss-off people who hate ads! Take most older Transformers series. Most are on Tubi and maybe YouTube, which have ads. Best way to circumvent this is a physical release, which will be DVD for most. - The older DVD release looks better than streaming cause someone may have made a mistake when uploading it to a streaming service. - Not all locations have internet access and still rely on physical releases. This also relates to those who have temporarily lost internet access and have to rely on discs. - Streaming depends largely on the service. If on Disney+, then the likelyhood that anything leaves for "rights issues" is unlikely. Anything on Netflix that isn't Netflix-owned could leave at anytime and take an eternity to find a new streaming service! - Portable DVD players are good when the power is out, home internet is down, and phones have a tentative charge. - Physical releases also have special features which aren't always available when looking at the same thing via streaming. |
