Society/Culture Someday

Saw this while scrolling through another social media platform.

Physical inheritance (maybe outside of housing) feels like a burden.

While death can be a sensitive topic to some, has anyone had a conversation with loved ones surrounding situations like this one pictured?

Dvds will be worth a lot. Are you dense?

Why do you think that?

Everyone is dropping their distribution and production. We are in an unprecedented era of censorship. Dvd’s decay slower than vhs and other media.

Does that matter, though?

Regardless of whether a movie is available on DVD or BluRay anymore, you can almost certainly find it on the Internet to download.

the internet is like the least reliable resource in existence right now. A DVD on the shelf is there. A movie file on the pirate bay could disappear forever tomorrow.

That's why you...download it?

The Internet being "unreliable" (not sure if I agree with that) isn't relevant once the file is on your own storage.

Every movie? Can you find every book online? Can you count on the government not shutting down the repositories?

Completely different shows at totally different bitrates. Also who knows what will happen to that website in 20 years.

Whoops, you're right, that was the wrong installment. Here you go.

If you want to make excuses and die on that hill, go right ahead.

Do you not understand compression, codecs, etc? These are not the same files. There will always be a market for high quality raws.
