I don’t even understand the pitch? you have the disc playing, in your hands, your ownership, no buffering, no subscription required. and they’re saying…hey do you want a worse experience?

    Telling people at blockbuster, where they kept track of your rental history and sent the information to movie studios, to rent movies that had unskippable pre-roll ads, you had to rent from a store filled with promotional material for what you should rent next, and then you had to rewind it all the way for the next victim XD

    Also the quality was shit, the screen was tiny, the lines were long, the human interaction was insufferable, the late fees were exorbitant, and the hardware was expensive and a unitasker.

    Don’t gaslight me about the good old days, I remember my dad walking behind the curtain.

      Seems like all you doing is proving there’s no slippery slope because company is in fact getting more invasive.

      Great job, maybe your dad also peek at what people’s watching and break into others house and recommend them related movie 🤣
