Could you have "remote access" to a DVD player in the cloud? And then stream the audio and video to a TV? Suppose you had one user per "DVD" at a time and you let them "borrow it" like they do ebooks at the library. It might be shutdown quick based upon the streaming laws but it does seem like a sort of variation to it all.
I think old movies will find their way, there is a relatively small number of them but there is an awful lot of TV (also probably just awful TV) that I have a very hard time finding someone wanting to pay to have it streamed. Other than some pop culture memories and nostalgia, I don't know that there is a great loss; the really high quality content tends to live on. It doesn't feel right. When Netflix DVDs are gone, there is a lot of stuff that I don't know where you could find it.
