Do you think normies will actually start doing this or is it all performative? Neither DVD or BD will have any of the movies made in the last 10 years available. There will be no true-crimeslop or netfix/hulu shows etc that women love so much
>>223995147They watch movies with phone in one hand anyways. They will just scroll for couple of minutes more
>>223995147there's only one seson needed anyway, and it's out, while all the other series are utter garbage.
Normies never knew or cared about bluray, did they
>>223995147No, it's all just performative and social media like bait. The average normie and especially zoomer would die if they had to oprate a dvd player or swap discs.And if they really wanted to they could simply google the name of the movie or show they want and stream it at the same shit quality as netflix and disney+ on their phones
>>223995147>Neither DVD or BD will have any of the movies made in the last 10 years available.Not sure if retarded.
>>223995147Disney BDs also had mandatory unskippable ads before every movie. Except it was the same ad for the same 6/10 movie every time.
>>223995366That whole show is for trannies and fags.
>>223995147>Neither DVD or BD will have any of the movies made in the last 10 years available.What’s your point?
>>223995462most people dont watch old shit, just whatever is being promoted on streaming apps
>>223995468I wouldn’t consider the ones watching current year /tv/ “people”
>>223995510normies, NPCs, slopenjoyers.. pick any word.
>>223995147>Where the hell is my DVD player?You pawned it.
>>223995147I want to suck on this lady's toes
>>223995147>Neither DVD or BD will have any of the movies made in the last 10 years available.
>>223995395Did anyone? Not sure if I've ever seen anyone use one.
>>223995445>people can't press the Next button
>>223995147Who cares if it's performative if they still do it?
I don't get why there's a thread like this every other day. Are these stream service bots?
>>223995147>make 16 dollars a month from your paypigs>make 30 dollars from them 4 or 5 times a yearprobably a wash
I haven't paid for a movie or show in over 10 yearsAnyone still doing so deserves to have their time wasted
>>223995147Yarr mateys, there be an easier way
>>223995147>or is it all performative?All "rebellion" after the mass dysgenics program of 2020-2022 is, so yes.
>streaming services or buying dvd dichotomy lol lmao even learn to torrrent fucking cattle
she won't do shit. she'll get a small dopamine boost from the attention online and then go back to being a dumb boring bitch.
>>223995395VHS to DVD felt like a massive upgrade in audio/video quality, durability and convenience. I started collecting BDs too near the end but it was hardly worth it. Most of the time I couldn't tell the difference.
>>223995800>>223995395bluray was a minor upgrade, mostly for film purists who wanted crisp grain
Two question marks, two commas and a period. All you need to know.
>>223995147I remember when streaming just started becoming a thing and it was all ad free, now there is an ad every 5 minutes regardless of how much you pay
>>223995147>owning them FOREVERuntil the disc gets a tiny invisible scratch that makes it skip whole sections of the movie
>>223995829That is highly dependable on what source they used. Some early DVDs of older films used old scans that were all over the place in quality. Blu-rays as standard always used a 2k or higher scanned source and some later DVDs of modern films are comparable. That said, saying it is "minor" isn't true either. I watched some films on DVD tons of times growing up and more recently watched them on blu-ray and I was taken aback at how different they looked at higher quality having watched them some many times before I was constantly noticing the difference.
>>223995829Bluray is a huge upgrade over dvd, your eyes are fucked if you can't recognize it
>>223995395They were overpriced for a minimal quality boost. Just like the Super CD which almost no millennial under 40 knows about
>>223995147No. Guarantee whoever random twitter person this is isn't the person in the pfp and is already a "oh, I don't -stream- I have the -physical disc-" person already. Convenience will always trump anything else with normies. 90% of people don't even watch whatever they have on streaming they're just using it for background noise so they don't feel lonely.
>>223995147>Neither DVD or BD will have any of the movies made in the last 10 years available.That isn't true. I am sure several movies and tv shows made exclusively for streaming platforms may never get official physical releases, but there are plenty of modern movies being released to DVD or BD regularly.>>223995955This. Sometimes it isn't much different, but usually it is. Also sometimes directors or movie studios mess with the visuals for different releases.
>>223995829>>223995955>>223995965Bluray also fucked with the colors
>>223995951This. So many of my DVDs just skip and lag and dont have good resolution to our modern TVs
my favourite site for click+stream piracy is getting high traffic errors now. i think i need to be filling a few hard drives with movies like, yesterday. normalfags are going to flock back to piracy and it'll get stomped on
>>223995707God I hope Trump goes after media pirates after he gets rid of all the illegals, fucking annoying fucks
>>223995829depends on the movie.some of the random shit i watched on DVD as a kid looked like it was bootleg shit made from a low quality limewire download
>>223996018maybe you should stop hamhanding everything.
>>223995147Normies binge-watch shows on Netflix or Disney+ on a weekly basis. They might burn through 2 seasons in a week and move on to the next series. If you bought a DVD set of those same shows it would cost a LOT more than the monthly subscription fees. DVD box sets are expensive shit (well I don't know if they even sell that shit anymore). Like you could get maybe 1 season worth of DVDs for the price of 1 month of Netflix. During that 1 month a person will watch a lot more content than that one box set includes. So comments like the OP tweet are just empty threats. Normies will never go back. You'd have to be able to order an entire season worth of DVDs for like 5-6 bucks and get it delivered to your home fast and still it would be hardly a better deal than streaming
>>223995707>hurr hurr why should I pay for anything when I can steal it for free>omg why aren't the studios making movies that cater to ME???!
>>223995951>>223996018One, there are ways to fix disc scratches. Two, handle your shit with care.
>>223996034Digital ID being required to use the internet, which fully tracks everything you do is coming in the next few years. Maybe even within the next 12 months depending on how far they push the AI shit. Getting as much media downloaded and backed up as you can right now is definitely important.
>>223996048Seething paypig wants other people punished for their own retarded cowardice.
>>223996018>dont have good resolution to our modern TVsYes. Streaming services stretching and using shitty upscaling looks so much better on modern TVs.
>>223996018DVDs are 480i lol
>>223996090Who are you quoting? Even if millions more started pirating or using free streaming site it's nothing compared to mainstream majority who will always buy tickets and pay for subs. Same shit with games and music.
>>223996155DVDs are 100% offline, BD needs firmware updates
>>223996095If my country implements that I'm going dark. I will literally stop using the internet before I submit to a face scan to access online material.
>>223995395Bluray was invented at the time when any chump with an internet connection and a USB stick could pirate a bluray quality film within a day.Why go through all the hassle of BUYING all those stupid disks and an expensive player when a shitty hard drive can be filled up with a hundred bluray quality films, for free, and played on basically any device.
>>223996090>We're not going to make movies for you>Okay, that's fine, what ones you make I'll just pirate>That's unfair, you have to buy the movies that aren't for you, for the slim chance we cater for your tastes (we won't!)
>>223995413Those movies are all shit anyway
>>223995829>soulful>soul>soulless
I'll just keep pirating stuff.
>>223995147Surely normies know about torrenting in 2026?
>>223996412>If
>>223996434>I'm going to use imagined victimhood in order to explain away my stealing
>self host aiostreams + torbox + gelato + jellyfin stack>watch 50gb+ 4k rips of kinos with no ads>can even let frens and family stream from my server to their tv. I'll make my own netflix thanks
>>223995147whats the reason not to go to those random streaming sites that jump around domains?
>>223997021do you have highlander 2 and shura on your platform!?
>>223995147> Neither DVD or BD will have any of the movies made in the last 10 years available
>>223995395blu rays were massive for the larger data storage for videos games but were redundant when it came to movies and streaming was too convenient for tv
pirateGODS win again
>>223997084sure bro. Idk what shura is but im sure its one of those.
>>223996048>>223996090The piracy will continue until the companies stop using the word "buy" when they mean rent.
>>223997191piracy will continue anyway because people dont like paying for things.
buycvcks....not like this....
>>223995395Blue ray was twice as expensive than a dvd with an imperceptible change in quality, unlike the cd-to-dvd jump.It was the beggining of the tech creep, "pay a lot more to have a little more power" that persist untill today
>>223996014no, it's called remastering, it has nothing to do with the disc format
My internet went out for a couple hours last night and was sad until I realized I have physical media,so I just watched Simpsons season 6
>>223995147Not really a normie, but I already don't use Sling and Amazon Prime for anything but sports now because their streams for movies are deceptive, that is, their quality is not what they advertise and they shove ads in all the shows that aren't movies at a ridiculous rate. Think TV ads times 30 at least.
>>223998403>remasteringIt's color grading, they deliberately removed red to make the image appear more crisp, and to create a larger contrast to the DVD versions
Why do physicalfags pretend DVDs are THE way for movies? They're only 480p.
>>223997173i need my shura(demons), this guy is literally me
>>223998527oh right yeah its right here breh
>>223995147>Neither DVD or BD will have any of the movies made in the last 10 years available.every movie made in the last 10 years has been shit
They're doing this because the subscription model isn't profitable.
>>223998525Most normies have 20x more dvds than blu-rays.
>>223995966enjoy your zip disk nerd
>>223995147Just pirate them like a normal person
>>223998525480p is good enough, though I prefer 720p. 1080p+ is redundant
>>223998820>1080p+ is redundantIt really isn't. 2160p is actual 35mm/70mm grade quality.
>>223995626
>>223999222>this action is prohibited
It's kind of perverse that their main business model for the last ten to twenty years has been preventing people from getting access to content. It would be one thing if this was to get money to the artists, but they're also doing their utmost to prevent artists from being paid.
>>223999409They get off on control. My Sony UHD player won't even STOP the movie I'm playing 99% of the time, so I have to turn it off.
>>223999114I never watched a movie in 480 and then in 4k and suddenly it was like a different film with a different plot and characters and a totally different ending that the 480 version didn't have. I feel like the only justification for 4k is if the "movie" is slop for idiots who just wanna see big things go boom
It’s performative. Because then they hylics will say “hyuck hyuck i WAAAANTED to cancel muh hulu nax Disney plus but buying every dvd is sooo expensive.” Like they aren’t aware of torrenting at this point and if they still hate the idea of that then there’s no saving them
>>223998577would subscribe/10
>>223999463It helps to watch on a TV and not a phone screen, true.
>>223999470Yeah but that's what I'm saying. 480 on a tv is fucking fine for every reasonably good STORY.
>>223999114I grew up watching vhs on 21 inch crts and the movies were amazing
>>223999485I'm not saying 480 is trash, but 2160p is so much better.>>223999491Same and I even had TVs that were smaller.Sometimes it's nice to be able to read things in films and to also make out some of the finer details. I'm not really bashing 480p or even 240p enjoyers, but 2160p is the best if it's available.
>>223999253I never had the problem
>>223999544Okay that's fair. I just don't think it's necessary beyond 1080 like the other guy said. It's a slight enhancement at that level of pixel density. It's why something like 16k would be idiotic because the image is already dense beyond the range of perception. For me, I have good eyesight, 720 seems as sharp as I need it to be to read everything.
>>223999552It depends on the player and the disc. Sony seems to be the worst with that, then followed by Samsung. My Pioneer DVD/Laser combo never ever gave me any lip, so there's one for the 480 crowd.
>>223995147>I wanna go back!Well... you can't
>>223999566>16k would be idioticI agree since most movies don't offer it and certainly not something like The Wizard of Oz, or ever Star Wars.Don't get me wrong, if a film is available in "just" 720, it doesn't make me cry. I've even watched films in 144p because there was absolutely nothing else.
>>223995147I have some long bets on physical media coming back, not as big as it once was but not gone. Look at vinyls resurgence. Streaming CAN be nice but the companies go out their way to make it an inferior option to sailing the seas
>>223999575I use a Sony DVD player. But its over 20 years old at this point. maybe the newer ones don't allow it.
>>223999660Okay you earned my respect 144p is really hard for me to sit through
>>223999648valid point
>>223995147too fat and lazy to swap out discs.
>>223995147Worst part about all of this? They aren't even good commercials. Just fuck awful slop from the zero-talent nep hires and blackrock backed retards in hollywood or sub shit tier obvious AI. I am firmly convinced that I can start a free to air television network and show only 90's style shows and old commercials and people will watch or just keep it on in the background as background noise.
>>223995413Those movies are also the easiest to pirate because they’re all digital
>>223995680amen brother, unless its at the theatre but even then I double dip off one ticket>Leech all you can, seed nothing back
>>223999463Maybe you're not watching the right movies, because I've seen movies in 4k, movies that I was familiar with, that have blown me away. I'm not saying it completely changed my opinion on the film, but it certainly gave me much more to appreciate and immerse myself in. >>2239995664k is about more than pixel density.
>>224000586Liberty Liberty Biberty
>>223996073You are making our point faggot.The point is you get them cheap or exchange from a friend/pirate. Look up original Netflix costs, you could order a season of Sopranos, rip it, and in 2 days have the next season in your mailbox.
one of these days.... i'll find one of those heavy wood block TVs or a giant rear projection tv like i had back in my formative years so i can watch kino from a tape or dvd again....
>>223995147What is a normie? Just say normalfag, you fucking FAGGOT.
>>223996090There are enough based movies in existence to last for a lifetime, i don't need gay studios to catter for me
>>223995147>posts on /tv/>consooms television and filmOP, you ARE the normie
>>223995395Because bluray discs are $20 USD and DVD are $5 USD
>>223999464you can buy second hand dvds for literally pennies and I mean like 50 movies for like 5 bucks
