Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever seen anything that was native to streaming regardless of Netflix, Amazon or Hulu move to DVD or Blu-ray. Also, if you're really gonna stick with physical media you need a region free unit. Just search for one on Amazon, they'll usually have a code you can enter to set it to region 0 which is everywhere.

Plenty of Netflix shows are on Blu. House of Cards, OitNB, the Marvel shows etc. It usually takes a year or so before they are released.

That's why you download porn for offline viewing. There are browser addons for that.

Same zoux, moving with all that poo poo sucks. Throw it all on a few hard drives and simplify your life. I have like 2 small shelves worth of books and blu rays now. e: and I stil buy games on disk because it's 20% off on amazon and they can be resold.

I keep it all on the cloud  I very rarely rewatch things, so owning a movie or tv series on disc is just going to be taking up space.

I had everything on amazon cloud until they decided to end their unlimited storage pricing and wanted to charge me like $200/mo or some insanity. Now it's just sitting on a new hard drive specifically for backup.

I have digital... backups of my favorite books, which Google kindly allowed me to upload to books.google.com for free, apathetic of where I sourced them, and can be read on any phone, tablet, or computer. My MP3 collection (with 10+ gigs of mashups, remixes, and unreleased material) sits in my Google Play Music library. iTunes and iBooks have a similar features. The source and project files for the lovely mashups I've made are backed up to my OneDrive (I get 1TB free from my wife's Office365 subscription). If I were to digitize my small DVD/Blu-ray library, there would be room on there for them too, and there are media player apps that can "stream" from cloud sources for when I would want to watch them. ...that said I do have vinyl copies of all my favorite albums and a battery powered record player so just in case everything goes to poo poo I can still listen to Radiohead. asecondduck fucked around with this message at 21:05 on Sep 6, 2017 |

With both Seth McFarland and Scott Grimes on the same show, I will be SORELY disappointed if there isn't an "Alien influence makes everyone sing" episode.

Everything else is just a rad old man's horror movie collection. If it helps, I now own far more VHS tapes than Blu-Rays. Though I own a lot of books as well, many of them just because they've got beautiful covers.

Personally I'm more concerned about the series' ability to competently sustain the concept (since the comics failed at doing that) and am not really interested in two underage female characters kissing, but to each their own I suppose...

As a young lesbian when Runaways first came out, the build up to then sudden dropping of the relationship before anything happened was a low blow tbh

Of course not, but to a teenage lesbian it was a bit deal. fwiw I honestly don't care if they end up together in the show, but it would be neat. Either way Carolina will still be a big 'mo.

With the fall TV season coming up I've decided to do a little experiment. If a show does not have a thread the day of new episodes starting I will make it. These won't be high effort OPs but I would like to see if just having the threads available create more discussion.
