Counterpoint: I recently got a Blu-ray player and honestly it feels like it’d be much cheaper than streaming. Especially for someone who doesn’t actually watch that much.
It feels like you have to have multiple accounts nowadays because everything keeps changing what platform they are on, and pulling things from their platform for one reason or another.
Take for example: I wanted to watch the “new” Puss in Boots movie (it’s really good, would recommend). If I wanted to watch it on Netflix, it’d cost me £11 a month every time I wanted to see it and it’d be limited to 720p. However, buying the Blu-ray cost me £7, and I can watch it whenever I want.
Sure, if you watch multiple things a month, or latest releases, streaming might make sense. But it’s certainly worth looking into whether occasional physical purchases might end up cheaper in the long run.
I’m right there with you! I am sick and tired of what the steaming services have become. I started building my library of DVDs and Blurays and am never looking back.

Check your local library, some have dvds and Blu-ray disks available to borrow.
