This post made me realize something.

Up until blu ray, the value proposition for buying electronics was always an absolute upgrade over the old tech.

You could do everything you wanted with DVDs that you could do with VHS and more (rewind, commentary).

Same thing with blue ray, sure the price might not have been worth the quality bump, but it was superior technology.

Ever since fucking Netflix it’s the opposite, the quality is lower and no extras + you lose access.

Seriously, Netflix introduced the idea of treating digital customers like shit by giving less for more and it worked so everyone is following it
