This community's stance on physical media ownership? (lemmy.world)

I might be asking a rhetorical question here but I was curious as to the overall consensus on physical media. Do support it because, unlike streaming, media can't take away what you've payed for? or are you against because it's a waste of money when you can "acquire" it through "alternative means?" I'm also thinking about getting a 4K Blu Ray player for when my wife and I get a new place; preferably one that can also play self hosted media. What do you guys think?

Why are you telling me how I enjoy consuming media? Muh freedom!

Nobody was telling you how to do anything. Dude was just disagreeing with the "physical media is easier to use" point of the guy above him and elaborating on why.
