NO option to buy them. Basically we'll never see those movies again.

Streaming is no bueno for consumers.

I think studios/streamers are undermining the value of their own product

Most players play both Blu-ray and DVD. Since the form factor is the same the name is pretty interchangeable.

Yep. Completely different optical technologies. Thank goodness players can play

TNT

Those are not interchangeable!!!!!!!!! That's like calling an iPhone a Galaxy S22 cause they have the same form factor.

4K HDR on iTunes is near 4K bluray video quality, but audio is noticeably worse.

TNT

That makes sense as I stream older shows. Some episodes are not available.
