(english.elpais.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I don't mind having downloaded digital copies. I have a Plex server of stuff too. But sometimes it's just easier to just buy a disk rather than find a safe/working torrent just to get it digitally
i spose. theres lots of automation tools available now..
adding a title to sonarr and having it automatically downloaded, processed and added to my library seems a lot easier than driving to some store or ordering online where i would now i have to deal with 'disks'
ha, but you skipped the part where you attempt to obtain a disk! the 'disk level' automation has existed for decades and is much more work than typing a name in a list.
not to mention, shit just isnt all on disk anymore.
youre seriously saying that working through the process of finding, purchasing, obtaining via shipping and then finally ripping the disk is 'just as easy' as typing a name into an automation system??
youre just flat out wrong. i have volumes of material that have never been on disk ever, and never will be
ahh i see
ive put shit on my torrenting list that were there for years before it popped up again was downloaded. and then, ive purchased home made vhs copies of shit that just doesnt exist anymore. so i get where youre comin from
