Didn’t I just see recently that Best Buy is no longer going to sell physical movies? I genuinely wonder how that industry is doing. It seemed, at a glance, safer than video games. There’s a noticeable difference in quality when you have a disc versus streaming, whereas with a video game it all gets installed and runs the same no matter how you bought it. uh

That'd be a bummer, it's where I get a lot of my physical movies.

And yeah I'm all in on the noticeable difference of discs vs streaming. There's also the fact that digital videos are more impermanent than video games which have a better track record of sticking around. Scrambled to buy a dvd of over the garden wall when it left Max.
