i used to have an extremely large dvd collection, and i prefer physical media over all, but these days i utilise streaming services much more out of laziness.

VHS is the superior video format.

yeah vhs can't have alternate tracks that play depending on the known serial numbers of the machines of the people who will watch this dvd.

instead a similar effect is created with controlled release points for certain groups of certain vhs versions.

blockbuster or your local long-living rental place for instance.

Streaming is a lot more convenient, but DVD is nicer since you have permanent access to it unless the disc breaks.

I pick DVD. As nice as streaming is and saves room on the shelf, there is comfort in knowing a dvd can't be taken away from you easily.

Same goes for music. Streaming is convenient and I prefer to stream if I'm at home, but if I'm driving I'd rather a CD since my cars bluetooth doesn't always work the best with my phone. I've got a shelf of CDs for the sole purpose of being driving music.

i still have hand full of dvd's and cd's. only reason is for when i want to watch a particullar movie what i have in movie or soundtrack and i have it on dvd/cd and i don't find it on streaming platform, then its just easier to pop in the disc then trying to search multiple streaming platforms and paying whatever amount just to watch a movie what i already got the disc for.

But other then that streaming platform

I prefer DVD despite their low 480P in quality , at least it's not Netflix or Prime that decide when I can watch them.

and collecting DVD used to be fun , something I found them in unexpected places , like yeah , I've seen grocery store selling movies on DVD.

they do have a shelves live which greatly vary depending on which manufacturer made the disc but most dvd should last at least 10 , 20 and probably even 30 years before they become unreadable if you take care of them.

I also liked watching the bonus that came with them when they where popular , I like making off that explain how the special effects where made and also cut scenes or alternate endings.
