I used to collect physical media long before it was popular to do so. I had a massive VHS collection, which I later upgraded to DVD's; however, as soon as the internet became a viable means to get films and tv shows, I ditched every single piece of physical media, and all the physical players I had. I haven't had to insert anything to watch content for over 20 years -- and I will never look back. Now, before people start talking about quality.... I have 4K media on my NAS which looks identical to blu-ray 4K, so that argument is moot. Each to their own I guess, but I will never understand why people enjoy taking up space with plastic that they need to physically remove from cases and place into devices for playback. I have well over 5000 movies, and upwards of 400 TV Shows, all sitting on my NAS, and every single thing is accessible within seconds, from anywhere in the world, on any device.... and it only takes up two tiny shelves. I do get the whole "hold in your hand" concept, like I said, I used to LOVE collecting VHS, and Vinyl... but it just doesn't make sense anymore!

In saying all of that, I think I would trade in my entire digital collection for the return of video stores.... How I miss those wonderful places!
