I want to be in the room when they plug that VCR into a 70-in TV and hit play just to see their faces.

DVD, Blueray, VHS? I've never heard of those torrent sites before
️Missed opportunity IMO there should totally be a piracy product or site called VHS

That must mean you have the original Lilo & Stitch.
Excellent.
That one is on DVD, actually

I have a media converter made from a raspberry pi I use for all of my old consoles so I can play them on modern TVs. I bet it would work great for vhs tapes as well. Tape degradation might be a different issue though...

I started building an all-BluRay collection back in 2018. I saw the writing on the wall when I would go to watch a movie with friends on streaming and it would be gone.
Almost all of my favorite movies are mine now. I see a lot of comments talking about pirating, but for me personally, the display I get and being able to just have guests grab from the wall is a lot cooler than scrolling.
Not to mention, some of them are quite collectible. It’s neat having some movies that are really rare and I know I had to work to find them.

There’s only so many times I want to watch the same movie, so my library would be limited
We need Bluray/DVD rental stores back.
There are some still around believe it or not. There's one local to me that's been around forever. They don't have anything that's exclusive to streaming services, but that have loads of new movies and a massive collection of old movies. They're pretty handy to get movies that are in limbo due to rights disputes.

I miss some of those great DVD extras.
In the movie, Robert Downey Jr's said he didn't break character until he finished do the DVD commentary. He was in character when he did the DVD commentary.
There was a special edition of Buckaroo Banzai with an onscreen commentary that pointed out that Buckaroo was carrying Einstein's brain with him when he entered dimension 8
edit = the movie was 'Tropic Thunder.'
In the movie, Robert Downey Jr's character said...
I know you're talking about Tropic Thunder, but how many other people would?

Burn your "acquired media" to physical media now folks. The powers that be are purposely limiting physical media so the have an excuse to phase it out

They tried to kill piracy so many times, and it never worked.
They will try again and fail again. And the best of it is that sales won't go up anyway because the problem is not piracy, is their own greed.
If they somehow manage to completely kill piracy, I won't be able to pay for every streaming service anyway because I don't have the time to enjoy them all nor I think they are worth my money at all.
Even if the internet dies.
Sneaker net was here before . And will be here afterwards..

Those are the same things
how about fucking don't? Local Libraries are our friends!

It would be a funny comment if that were not a very real attack used against libraries.

Luckily I saved all of my blu-rays. And, bonus: they're all good movies from before Disney went to shit
you got Blu Rays from before Steamboat Willy?

We'll just start doing what we did before the internet: go to each other homes and copy from their source.

Many libraries have large DVD collections.

Keep a 13-inch TV around?

We're running out of safe havens to host, I feel. Countries that won't submit to the industry's will. With the additional clamping down on material not government-sanctioned recently, with invasive biometric and ID checks, it certainly feels like the wrong direction.
Meanwhile NZB will still exist and never targeted. Funny how they hate torrents so much when NZB is superior and easier.

My vcr and all old consoles actually work fine on my shitty insignia flat-screen. But I'd rather play on my crt or projector tv.

You got it backwards. The Sith are the corpos and the resistance is piracy.
