I've seen a couple takes and am interested: Do you consider a Disney cartoon or Marvel series being on Disney+ instead...

I didn't know you owned The Simpsons when you watched it on Fox. Nothing stops you from using the streaming then buying the bluray.

Yeah, but that really doesn't guarantee anything.
I don't trust any company with streaming these days, streaming anything really, but mostly movies and tv.

Yea I think many are wary of Disney with their Vault mentality and shit.

You seem to be missing how whenever anyone brings up streaming they bring up traditional AND physical media

Companies are salivating for the day they kill physical media, because a sale once is one they're afraid to never see again.
Which is bullshit, but it's what they believe and was a major reason why movie studios wanted to kill home video when it was first made.

Its not just Disney, but their Vault shit doesn't help.

Who's to say one day they might go "hmmmmm Tron isn't doing too well on our service, not bad, but it's not getting as many views as we'd like, let's put it away in favor of one of our Frozen specials, the nerds will be mad but we'll get more views that way" and so forth.

What if because it seems to be a pay for everything deal instead of paying individual stuff or having lots of ad revenue from cable they'll make new stuff at a slower rate?

Most stream apps worth their shit let you smart cast what you like to the smart TV.

Hoping for an Avengers EMH revival

>a sale once is one they're afraid to never see again.
???

Why would you waste money on a Blu-ray player & discs for media you already have access to via streaming? Extras are nice but not $30 nice.

You don't really own your copy of a show or movie. You & I never have.

>Can't afford streaming service subscription
>Can afford cable & network television

There is a dissonance here...

Of course not. I don't watch D*sney garbage regardless, so if they group it somewhere I've got no chance of coming across it it's a real time saver.

I don't know what you're confused about. You buy a movie, and watch it to your hearts content and the studio will never see a dime of you watching it outside of the initial sale.

That's what they hate. And sure you play the technicality card of you not "actually" owning it, but that only really applies to the replication of it and selling it on your own without the studios permission. You own that specific "copy" of the media in question, but not the actual property.

>Why would you waste money on a Blu-ray player & discs for media you already have access to via streaming?
Because you actually OWN it, again you own the copy of the media. With Streaming you don't even get that much are basically paying for the privilege to watch it, something they might not even always have on their service for one reason or another.

Streaming allows you to watch content as much as you want given that you are subscribed to the service. Discs may scratch & break. My oldVHS tapes are pretty much unplayable.

Even if you own the physical copy, legally you cannot play it for a large audience. You don't have theaters or bars advertising screenings of Star Wars on DVD.

Studios have found it is more lucrative to have programs on streaming services than on a physical copy. Cuts out the middle manufacturer & subscriptions renew themselves without even passing by the customer first. Plus they can argue they're being environmental by no longer producing physical content.

I don't like how streaming services can take down content just because they feel like it, but that is the trade-off. I would rather no have a physical collection of videos & media that take up space, gather dust, & slowly deteriorate.

I guess this is showing how society is paying more for experience than ownership, be it with entertainment, fashion, or homes.

P.s.: Disney is going to totally pull a bait-and-switch with their streaming service & pull a vault of rotating availability.

>Streaming allows you to watch content as much as you want given that you are subscribed to the service
Until, again, they take it off for one reason or another.

>Even if you own the physical copy, legally you cannot play it for a large audience
I said that. And it's never actually been an issue by and large. Right now with physical media, you own that specific copy and just can't copy it for profit. Hence why some public places are able to show movies for free,

>Studios have found it is more lucrative to have programs on streaming services than on a physical copy
THAT'S THE FUCKING ISSUE.
They want to make sure you can't watch it without their say so first. They've been beggeing for this to happen one day and now they're closer to it than ever. That's not a good for the consumer.

> Plus they can argue they're being environmental by no longer producing physical content.
Digital copies still exist user, and who knows if those will stay either.

>don't like how streaming services can take down content just because they feel like it, but that is the trade-off
It's a shitty trade off, and it shouldn't have to be. Some people like to have physical media user, there should be a place for both.

>Disney is going to totally pull a bait-and-switch with their streaming service & pull a vault of rotating availability.
Exactly and I've been calling in this thread.
Companies are fickle and who knows how long shit stays there

I currently have three services, Netflix, Hulu, and VRV, and I cannot tell you all the times I've looked for a movie/tv series only to find out it's been nuked from the service

Sorry if I am unfocused as I may be passing a kidney stone.
