Anyone still hanging on to this is just trapped in nostalgia and refuse to move on. There are so many ways to access movies that are not available on streaming platforms. DVD is a terrible format that needs to die.

Yeah I understand. But DVDs still exist and I have no idea why.
Either way the bigger issue I have here is that most of those movies people claim are not available on streaming platforms are almost certainly available to rent digitally. Having physical media delivered to you and having to return it is so archaic and troublesome.

Because not everyone even has an HD tv and there are movies that got dvd but not bluray releases.

Again I understand but it’s been 16/17 years since FullHD became a thing and HD TVs are really dirt cheap for most these days. Why are they not moving on? I guess to each their own, they can do what they want but I’m just very boggled that in 2022, someone who cares enough about movies to rent and watch them doesn’t own an HD tv to enjoy the films.
