Best Buy WILL NO LONGER SELL PHYSICAL MEDIA

[CopiousX]

Going to Blockbuster was an experience back in the day.

I think I still got the equalizer one on loan from them

Better cop the physical copies of your favorite movies/shows while you can. Because with everything going the streaming route, if a certain episode or scene is deemed inappropriate they’re going to either censor it or pull it altogether

yeah in the all digital era, movies like natural born killers might be Outta there in a few years or less.

all those super violent movies might get the boot.

I miss the 90s so much browsing CD stores like Sam's Goody, Media Play, Blockbuster, etc .Malls still have F.Y.E. stores in them

Collectors say "there is an absolute need for physical media" as Best Buy halts in-store sales

"You can change whatever you want," Mr. Zeros owner Richard Schwinden said. "But there's still going to be people that want to own a VHS. There's still a person that wants to own a laser disk or a record or a CD."

I still buy CD's well just from the 90s. Alotta streaming apps are missing tracks from albums or dont even have the albums at all.

DVD and Blu ray i already got my favorites. Aint no new movies worth a damn.

The joke is actually on the people. People can lose music, movies, etc if streaming companies act funny or go out of business.

I need to physically maintain control over my media..imagine letting a corporation decide whether you can listen to something or not.

Streaming services have destroyed music and art

I feel horrible for a generation that will never know what it felt like when your favorite artist dropped their album on Tuesday, getting to a store and buying your favorite artist work for support, getting in the car ripping the plastic off the disc, listening to an entire album of work for the next hour or so, then getting home and reading the booklet from the cd case.

Those 14-18 tracks was a creative journey designed to allow the consumer to connect to the artist personally.

Now music is just move from single to single and the most you will connect with an artist is the weirdo clout chasing bs they post on social media. Streaming has just killed feelings of anticipation for a artist to drop.

I'm hoping somehow we turn this around. Where talent means something, a body of work we can judge from 1 to 5 mics, a catalog we can access etc. Truth is, nobody even loves music anymore

When greedy Steve Jobs began this Apple streaming nonsense, he was criticized for killing music and art even further and he disagreed..we'll, seems the critics were right.

This. And especially it comes to books, I worry about stealth editing. If it isn't happening already, it will.

I don’t even have a DVD or Blu-ray player

It's already happening.
The fakkit imp DeSantis has made it clear along with other Republicans that is their intention. Anything historical that presents whites in a bad light will be omitted.
