it makes me chuckle at all those who once had a physical collection and sold them or gave them away in favour of streaming... who's laughing now loser's 🤦‍♂️
- Going to be honest, I don't really care that I got rid of my VHS tapes and 480p DVDs.
  
  Yeah anything under 1080p is unwatchable on 50"+ screens.
- Kept all mine, turned it into a Plex server w/o pirating, laughing in no monthly subs. Plus charity shops sell blurays for barely anything.
- I mean, free streaming sites never went away.

  Damn, sad you're this smug while also thinking you're smart for having physical media.
