DVDs are simply moribund.
Why? Because where can you legally watch Transformers G1, the original 2001 Robots In Disguise, Armada, Energon, Cybertron, Animated, Beast Wars, Beast Wars II, Beast Wars Neo, Headmasters, Masterforce, Victory and other Transformers shows other than Rescue Bots, Transformers Prime and the current Robots In Disguise series?
I still buy Blu-Rays or DVDs of my favorite things that I want to have "on demand" so that I don't have to worry about what Amazon Prime Video or Netflix or Hulu want to show me currently. I subscribe to the former two, and as much as I wanted to buy Stranger Things on Blu-Ray on Black Friday last year, I determined that's where I could draw the line for the time being because that show
should always be on Netflix so there's no need for me to buy it at this time. However, I still buy all of the Marvel and Star Wars movies as they come out and the occasional really awesome movie. Basically anything that I hold near and dear or anything that I wanted to see in the theater really bad but wasn't able to due to life, kids, work/Seibertron, etc which only lets me see 1 or 2 non-kid movies a year at the theater.
While I love watching streaming videos, I still prefer to own what it is that I really like.
