Oh I totally understand the benefits of owning the disc. It is just that they buy everything on disc. I own a few Blurays of some of my favourite films but I think that I have 5 or 6 total. I know people with over 300 movies on Bluray! I mean yes it is cool they can lend it to a friend but that isn't something that happens often in my experience.
So yeah I get the benefits for your favourite things but for some generic Hollywood action movie? Dunno man that seems like a waste of €20 to me when you can watch it on Netflix or some other service you already subscribe to. I mean they all have Netflix of course. They don't even seem to check if the film is even available to stream on a service they already pay for. Very strange to me.
As a counter point to what you said about music I have found way more music I love thanks to Spotify. I discovered music much like you when I was younger but it wasn't really anything I wouldn't have discovered anyway as it was all popular rock, indie, pop, jazz artists that had wide vinyl/CD distribution. Thanks to Spotify I can listen to some random artist in a small country with close to the same discoverability as Taylor Swift, Jay-Z or Coldplay. Of course that is more to do with the internet that Spotify specifically but I still love Spotify. I listen to so much more music than I did when we had CDs or just the iTunes store. The same is true of TV and movies thanks to Netflix imho.
