I'm really coming around again to the idea of just buying the content I want to watch again and again, on some physical media which I can watch however/whenever. As well as stuff doing a vanishing act, there's a discernable difference in picture quality, even at the same resolutions, particularly when comparing 4k via Netflix/Amazon to 4k Blus.
It starts to get really obvious especially when they start editing stuff. It’s pretty rare atm but I noticed one movie was cut by streamers. And they are planning to insert product placement in movies also. It’s a new hell as they say these days, so it has to be physical if it’s possible in my mind. This is only the start of what is coming with streaming, at least for your favourite movies. I still stream stuff, but it’s get purchased asap if it’s one I enjoy a lot.
