I just bought all the seasons of Supernatural and most of the seasons of South Park on blu-ray, and plan on getting the movie’s Collateral, The Core, and Speed on 4K blu-ray :)

Since learning about Best Buy’s blasphemy, I am currently going on a blu ray collecting spree in case physical media goes bye bye across the board someday. Physical media will always be vastly superior to streaming

I have Cinemark Movie Club but this video is getting me to look at the other two options to possibly make a switch. As a male I'm not interested in the beauty and makeup part of the channel but my question is, is this channel headed toward more movies, physical media or a movie review channel ? If so I'm in for the long haul. Thank you

I never EVER thought I'd say this, but I'm buying fewer and fewer discs all the time now. I have a HUGE collection of 4K, blu-rays and even a bunch of DVD's still on the shelf but if they don't start dropping the prices on movies, I'll be out soon. Why on earth does it cost on average over 30 bucks for any movie today. Large studio or small, that's what it costs and I'm sick of it. The studios are pushing this collector to streaming more and more.

I still mainly buy dvds lol. My mate has tons of blu rays but sometimes depending on the film I think blu ray looks so clean and clear it actually shows up some of the old special effects in old films so I rather watch dvd. If I want to watch something like Avatar though then its blu ray all the way. Still regularly buy dvds and occasionally blu ray.

Physical media is here to stay it rules

I wondered why I have so many BD's

I'm a fan of 4K, the only downside for me is the price of 4Ks, even on eBay some of the prices are insane.

I like collecting physical blu rays. I'm not a fan of the cheap, recyclable elite cases. I prefer the thicker and more sturdy amaray UK cases.

Interesting topic

1. Had some video quality issues (oh, the irony) 2. I feel like I just did six minutes of free advertising. Somebody pay up 😂

California now forced companies that sell you digital media, state that you are only buying a license to view/listen to that content. If you lose it, and want to download again, you're out of luck. Keep buying CDs and Blu-ray's. Also realize that the whole time you're still getting ripped off by paying the same amount you used to pay for physical media for a "license" of it.

It’s never stopped but it has slowed down for me. It’s just harder to buy physical media on the fly. Most of the stuff I get is online. Recently, I did try to make it to the Criterion Closet in NYC but those lines were way too long. Although it is interesting seeing people willing to wait 6-7 hours just to buy 3 movies max.

Hell yes

Glad to see another collector😍

Neelou on KZbin comeback?! Love it

Did you like successions ending?

You are beautiful. I own a Panasonic bluray disc player. My favourite movies are on bluray disc. Bluray disc is the SWEET SPOT. Affordable price for HD AUDIO LOSSLESS and HD picture at 1080p that my Samsung 4K upscales very well. I don't buy random movies. Just my favourites. Everything else you want to watch that you don't know, just rent it digitally if it's not a streaming platform.

It's been slowly coming back because people are getting fed up of the lies of the streaming industry gave, and the lies when they pushed people to buy digital movies. Redbox is a huge example to where people bought a lot of digital movies, and then it's all gone. Also, all the companies wanted to spin off of Netflix even though they put their stuff on there, so we have many streaming services with monthly price hikes. The quality was never as good on streaming, and we were promised it would be eventually. They move shows and movies around from streaming service to streaming service, so if you're in the mood for watch one thing, you have to sign up for that one service. They remove things constantly, never put them back at times, or just never put some things on them. The original Rocky and Bullwinkle, you'll never find on streaming as an example. It's all promoted to the new crap. They're constantly cancelling good shows, or take years to bring out a new season. Season 1 of Squid Game came out on 2021. Season. 2, not until Dec 26 of this year. Over 3 years. That's just too long. Santa Clarita Diet, cancelled. Streaming is just too aggravating anymore.

Who doesn’t collect physical media it’s the real way

Subscribed! Loved the message-and your name! Second generation Assyrian-American here (Maternal grandparents emigrated to U.S. from Persia). 👍🏻

yes, physical media is making a comeback . Ive had friends go over CDs, DVDs, and Vinyl records also . oh, just a side note. You may want to check your audio recording. there's a bit of a "hummm" that can be heard. over all, good video.

For me physical media never left. I buy everything that has the slightest chance of some blue hair gender studies maker taking off the servers, like Blazing Saddles or Animal House. And beautiful movies like they don't make anymore. A copy of Silver Streak on bluray cost me fifty bucks😅

So happy you’re diving into collection physical media AGAIN. Loved this video. Hope to see more PM content in the future. Either way you have another subscriber here! 💯🤘🏻📀

Can't imagine being born into a world of streaming🤔Always been physical; from VHS to DVD to Bluray to 4K. It's not making a "comeback", it's always been there. There's a reason it's never gone away, people like ownership (loaning, selling, gifting stc).

Over here all local distributors have stopped releasing physical content, and the worst thing... it's not available digitally either (not for streaming, not for buying on Apple Store / Prime). Many shows I'd like to see are 'not available in my country' (fan of EU / British crime shows). It's driving me crazy....

Nothing beats physical media. But it’s getting too expensive for me because we don’t have any stores that still sells them in my country , even online! So I have to import everything and it’s really not an ideal situation. Physical media is actually dead in Saudi arabia. People have completely went to streaming.

This is an awesome video, love to see that collecting films isn’t just a boys club

I think I will cease buying physical media only when it's not available any longer. I still have laserdiscs, believe it or not.

The main pro is owning a collection that has value. You can sell it, loan things out to friends. Digital purchases are like flushing money down the drain, it's worth nothing at all, and there's a good chance someday the studios will find a way to steal it from you.

I had a huge DVD collection, but paired it down with my BluRay collection. I made a list of the top 50 films that i love and want to rewatch over and over. I miss the days of going to BestBuy and Tower Records and browsing the DVD’s and CD’s. I also miss the days of Blockbuster Video and renting a movie.

Welcome to the world of physical media.

I used to stream until I was sick and tired of all the horrible content so I went back to physical media. 10 times better. 4K Blu-ray. I haven't streamed in years

I look at the censored Adventures in Babysitting on streaming and then I hug my physical copy

just like me i still have NO cable tv . yes . i still buy 16mm film. vhs . laserdisc .dvd . blu ray & 4K s .. maybe i am crazy.who knows.

As someone in the physical media community who has seen many breakdowns of it's pros and cons, this video was perfectly paced and still managed to go deeper than most physical media channels. Great stuff.

I am a fan also of blu ray discs... I also have a few movies in 4K bought from RAKUTEN TV because the price was good..but they cut my rezolution from MY MOVIES..with no explication. And like you said ...if the company goes down so my movies with them ..I also heard that AMAZON want to cut down blu rays to buy movies from them...I hope that blu rays will remain..for all the colectors in the word!!!!

I've been collecting dvd/bluray since 2008 and don't plan on stopping. I don't trust digital collecting or streaming, any streaming service could just remove your favorite show or movie at anytime without explanation, not to mention censorship issues arising.

A problem i am seeing with new 4K releases is too much detail and image manipulation using "A.I." which alters the original. I prefer Blu-ray myself, 4K only seems necessary if you have larger screens (50" plus).

hey girr, u got some good movies. I like my movie collection so far, growing every month :)

Long live physical media

Great video Neelou, I always appreciate physical media proponents putting out vids like this. Keep up the great work! 👍

I have some blue ray disks but the problem I have is……how many times are you going to watch the same movie? I doubt I will buy any more disks.

Buying physical media has never gone away as far as I’m concerned. I always buy 4Ks and Blu Rays.

I got back into bluray because of the video / audio quality (as well as the extras) and also 99% of the films I enjoy are just not readily available on any of the streaming platforms (perhaps in some obscure corner of Amazon prime) so I can now watch a lot of my favourite 60s and 70s films and TV shows. I must admit blurays does mean I intend to go off into things such as Giallo or Hammer or Tigon films etc so can be expensive. It can get a little out of hand. Some of the packaging is pretty hopeless for blurays, the disks often are impossible to move or they fall out too easily. I agree, they could make them even more visually impressive. I like the 4Ks coming with blurays as well, always great as a backup

Just like I found out - at some point you will run out of space and then Apple or some other online service becomes that much more convenient. Apple is actually quite good in terms of quality and I'm surprised more people don't purchase through them.

4k not worth it, blu ray always look better over all, dvds good to

Physical media never went away, how can something that's been stronger then streaming this whole time maje a comeback when never died down

Agree with everything! I’ve been going back and collecting my favorite movies physically too. I really regret giving them up for streaming now. But you definitely can’t collect everything and streaming has it’s place for that.
