I was thinking about this the other day when I saw a film I have on DVD listed on Netflix, but then if my internet is down on a day I'm not well and just want something to watch, I can put a DVD on. I don't pay tv licence, so can't watch live tv... I don't even have tv now.

I mean personally I dont own a DVD player. My memories of them as a child were of them always getting scratched and then not playing right.

I might save up for an Amazon Firestick so I can stream Netflix, Hulu, TubiTV, and Pluto TV :chin:

I have Roku, I LOVE it so much, I have Netflix, Hulu, TubiTV, Pluto, Roku has app for free tv & movies, they have Bewitched so does Pluto. I have more apps, Crackles, Boomerang, Hallmark Movies & more, I don’t use everything.

You can also buy tv show & movies, they have apps for people to buy or rent stuff, I’m thinking of buying Man With A Plan. I don’t know if I want to buy CBS for one show. I don’t have cable anymore :heart: :heart:

It's an HD TV that doesn't have the smart tv features, so I have to use a devic like a bluray player or firestick to stream Netflix and Hulu.

My mom bought it for me when I was living in a group home in 2016.

Just wondering because you may not need the brand spanking newest roku. That is more for 4k viewing. Though there is a night mode option which brings down the special effects so the voices are on the same level.

Piracy is awesome. It's the best way to preserve digital media.

We've just bought out first bluray player, guess we're behind the times!

I like actually owning copies of things so if discs go out it'll be piracy for me too (unless they start selling downloadable DRM-free movies).
