AS a Gen X person, who grew up with VHS and later DVDs, and the joy involved in using physical media, something we took for granted at the time, I'm so happy to see a younger person embrace the joy and love of owning physical media.
Facts Bro great video, it seems that the world is going more towards renting and leasing rather than ownership, that is also why I like physical media! Again great video and some very good points
Some great recent movies with sound effects I've discovered that most people do not mention: - Superman in 4k 5 disc collection - Amazing Spiderman 1 and 2 - Legend of Hercules - Legend of Tarzan - Life - Kong skull island - Sonic the Hedgehog 1 and 2 - Ghost Rider / Ghost Rider Spirit of Vengeance - xXx: Return Of Xander Cage - Gladiator/Braveheart 2-Movie Collection (4K Ultra HD + Digital) - Bumblebee,Transformers - The Revenant Top Blu-Ray: - Grand Prix (starring James Garner) - House of Flying Daggers - Need for Speed - Wyatt Earp (1994) - John Carter ==== Best music streaming = Apple Music lossless
Phantasm enjoyers unite! Such a great 4k release. My favorite thing about physical media is 3D Blu-ray, since stereo films are generally unavailable on streaming.
Great discourse. My only gripe is I’ve decided to sell legacy media types many times over; VHS, DVD, Blu-Ray, 4K Blu-ray. Upgrading and maintaining compatible players is often a chore. Finally, digital helps with decluttering. Each to their own however! Enjoy your awesome collection!
Very solid video recently ive been going around to walmarts, Goodwills, you name it just really building out my physical media collection its more important then ever before.
It's very important to keep hard copies of our classic movies and TV shows in case the Government decides to "curate" the past to normalize their dystopian future. I myself have over 4000+ movies and over 200 TV shows. And also because buying (not renting) digital DRMed movies & TV are a scam.
I truly love your video! I’m 23 and I’ve been collecting physical media for as long as I can remember. I have roughly over 726 4K and Blu-rays. Physical media will always be better than streaming.
Buy Synology 1821+ with 8 x 16 TB WD Red Pro HDD. After this you will have about 100 TB. Not cheap, but you can have thousands of movies in a little physical place. You can repay a bank loan in 8-10 years.
On that May the 4th day, I was watching Episodes 1-6, something I couldn't do on TV like before because on TV they show the Disney Star Wars movies, soo nuts to that. But because of my Stars War Blu Ray Collectors edition, I was able to. Physical for life!!!
I completely agree with everything you're saying. I still have a tonne of dvds that I don't plan to get rid of . . . . I have blu rays and 4k but i'm leaning mostly on blu ray for new purchases and getting 4k for only films i'll watch a gazillion times. however, i'm trying to shrink my collection and looking into ways of doing so. i'm not purging too much but getting rid of cases (eventually) but i have to find the right envelopes with ability of keeping the sleeves and the odd booklets with getting rid of the cases
I do have a very large digital gaming library. Like 1k plus games on Steam, GOG, Origin, Xbox, Epic, Ubisoft, Rockstar etc (they never freaking end) and I feel confident with Steam and GOG that I'll always have access to those. But, I regularly buy old console games, for nostalgia and series playthroughs. I don't play new console games really, except occasional Sony ones, but I buy those physical too. I have about 100 console games physically. I much prefer that method. But 1k of physical PC games wouldn't be possible to store or display.
Your steam games will be useless in the future when steam as service will be no more, even when you have offline backup created by client, you need client to unpack it and install it. Only platform where you can backup 100% offline installer with no DRM and no activation is GOG and that's why I buy everything there if it's possible and backup installers. Sometimes you want to play older version of that game because later updates are breaking it or add content which you don't want, so you just install it from offline installer and run without client, problem solved. On steam, there is no way how to run not updated game, I hate it. And on Rockshitstar, Ubishit and EAss, I would not buy anything again, these clients are totaly broken and you can't play games you paid for.
@@PidalinYeah, but I don't foresee Valve and Steam going anywhere for decades. Hopefully when Gabe dies or they sell the company, that doesn't change though. I have all my GOG game installers on a separate USB just as backup.
Where did you get an autographed copy of "The Room"? And I agree that the library is a totally overlooked/undervalued resource. I can't find regular DVDs for Stranger Things Season 2 on sale for less than $120 for some reason. So I went to the library. Problem solved (except I hear you are supposed to return them at some point).
Even though Blue ray dvd is the best HD way to watch movies I just got a VHS player with tapes from a lady for $15. Summer is coming and I can’t wait to hit up some garage sales
I watched The warriors again the other day and you remind me of that guy with the beer bottles on his fingers clinking them together saying warriors come out and play
Agreed. While I personally do have blurays, I find dvd cases much more pleasing. The picture is bigger, and the aspect ratio of the cover art is more akin to a movie poster. Bluray covers are often badly cropped and the blue top is a waste.
@@mark4163 the blue top is so ugly to me. Like it just ruins the look of the case to me. Glad I'm not the only one. I do wish DVDs were higher quality sometimes tho. I'm not super fussed about quality but some DVDs are really lacking in that department lol
Have a question about 4K Blu-ray that I purchased at Target that has a glitches in the disc. I recently purchased Apocalypse now final cut. I played the Blu-ray. It was great. I just got a 4K player and my final cut 4K disc chapter 7 freezes glitches won’t actually play but all the rest of the film chapters play and look fine. What does one do? who do you contact? to, get a new replacement copy of this 4K Blu-ray Disc of A.N final cut is it Lionsgate? On RUclips. There was another Apocalypse Now final cut 4K Owner that had a similar defect issue more or less in the same exact spot on the 4K disk were mine froze up and glitched out. I'm all for physical media, but if you buy it and it doesn’t work, what do you do?
One example, Lord of the Ring DVD Edition, Compare it with Netflix, Disney, Amazon, Paramount etc. Die Picture Quality from the DVD is always superior to the Streaming company always, I have high speed Internet, so Speed was never the problem.Star Wars, Back to the Future, Indiana Jones, Hitchcock Movies doesn't matter Picture Quality is always better. So Streaming Companies never provided us with the promised Quality How would 4k work when even HD is not working. And we are paying for the poor quality.
Disk rot usually is a manufacturing error and is easy to spot very early on. It can still appear much later in a discs life span, but the problem is a bit overblown.
Greetings from great Britain. ..in the last 5 years I've built up an impressive CD library....although prices are starting to rise....BUT in the UK DVDS are still cheap 5 for a pound at my local charity shop...ive been building up my collection of favourite films and TV shows. ...i love the extras...the booklets .. commentaries etc....i dont think theyre always going to be cheap...i only stream Netflix (with adverts as its cheaper and hey all you advertising executives you do know that no one even registers what your trying to sell...we use them to take a piss...go to the fridge...or check our phones)...for convenience and casual viewing with my wife...but if i really like a film i want a copy..itd be a sad day if DVDs were no longer made or BLURAY players were made...if that happened id use what i have and if it packs in ...hey more time for reading and play my guitars more...
Great video and i'm happy to see young people into collecting and preserving physical media.
Excellent! The depreciation of our basic property rights is a huge problem. Thank you for pointing it out in this important and relevant area of life, entertainment.
I 100% agree. I enjoy the sense of ownership. This can also apply to cds and vinyl.
Yup, even steam games or Epic. You pay for the license to play the game but you don't actually own the game.
Very true, and obviously this also applies to other physical media like music and books.
The only real advantage of streaming over physical media is that it doesn’t take up space.
And doesn’t produce waste

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm is goated.
Yeah I agree. It’s definitely criminally underrated
Its my favorite movie but I can't watch it often due to the ending leaving me heartbroken :( I have it in 4k, blu ray, and the comic version.
Facts Bro great video, it seems that the world is going more towards renting and leasing rather than ownership, that is also why I like physical media! Again great video and some very good points
Facts! I began collecting physical media recently and I couldn't agree more.
i agree 100000000000000000000000 percent
Physical will always be best ! Only way to spend your hard earned money and have your products when you want them !

- Superman in 4k 5 disc collection
- Amazing Spiderman 1 and 2

right there with you bro, I still buy physical of games and movies.
I get the best of both worlds. I have all my physical media ripped to a media server that I can stream anywhere I go.

I love physical media!
Very solid video recently ive been going around to walmarts, Goodwills, you name it just really building out my physical media collection its more important then ever before.
Agree with this video 👍 Plus hunting down and looking for movies is FUN. The prices have come down alot. eBay is great, and local thrift stores.

I myself have over 4000+ movies and over 200 TV shows.

Most of it is already propaganda.

Generally speaking I only buy physical copies of movies/shows I know I love/care about. Otherwise, I watch on streaming services.
On that May the 4th day, I was watching Episodes 1-6, something I couldn't do on TV like before because on TV they show the Disney Star Wars movies, soo nuts to that.
But because of my Stars War Blu Ray Collectors edition, I was able to.

Also, If you are like me, alot of foreign films and Indy films aren't on stream. I like Japanese and martial arts films.. Good video 😊
You can scrounge around garbage cans for free food too!! 😂

I actually meet Tommy Wiseau at a movie theater in Buffalo. He signed my copy of The Room.
The "imporAnce" of owning physical media! 😂
Yeah I live in the country and our internet service is slow. Streaming is annoying a lot of buffering for sure
I love my physical media collection! What's some of your hidden gems or guilty pleasures? 🐧🍎🍏💙
Even though Blue ray dvd is the best HD way to watch movies I just got a VHS player with tapes from a lady for $15. Summer is coming and I can’t wait to hit up some garage sales
I watched The warriors again the other day and you remind me of that guy with the beer bottles on his fingers clinking them together saying warriors come out and play
YES!!!! THE ROOM!!!!
Random but do you have any PTA films in your collection?
I know I have Boogie Nights in my collection
@@anthillshapedbox7978 I’m slowly adding more of my favorite directors movies to my collection do you have any full filmography’s in your collection?
It wouldn't be a bad idea to keep an extra DVD player around....just in case 😉
If your player is connected to the internet they certainly can prevent playback of any thing they want.
I love having a physical media collection BUT I Hate blurays. I only purchase dvds. Bluray cases are so UGLY to me.
Agreed. While I personally do have blurays, I find dvd cases much more pleasing. The picture is bigger, and the aspect ratio of the cover art is more akin to a movie poster. Bluray covers are often badly cropped and the blue top is a waste.

I have never seen Mask of the Pantasm but want to. I don't have a 4k player though, just Blu-ray.

What brand and model of DVD player do you have?
Streaming is like going to the public library, you don't own it!

Until your disk rots and doesn't work anymore.
Disk rot usually is a manufacturing error and is easy to spot very early on. It can still appear much later in a discs life span, but the problem is a bit overblown.
I made the decision not to have Morbius in my physical collection
That was probably a smart decision lol
Disney can watch your video
