Imagine spending money to own a physical copy of something you could pirate for free.

Imagine owning a physical library of movies, 90% of which are one time watches anyway.

Silly.

I’m going piracy? Digital copies I own forever, less e-waste in 18 year when they deteriorate.

Buy that hard media while you can folks... Mega corpos can't wait for physical media to die.

Is an Xbox Series X a suitable 4k Blu-ray player, assuming I’m using a compatible tv? I know so little about physical media despite being late 30’s and having grown up with it.

[–] TheImpressiveX@lemm.ee 4 points 1 day ago

Yes, you can use an Xbox Series X to play 4K Blu-rays

I'm using a PS5 myself.
