    The convenience of having your stuff at a click of a button is just too good.

    Except when you go to find your stuff, discover it’s not there, and yearn to be able to just stuff a DVD in a player.

      That’s why I ripped my media onto my NAS. I have the physical media as a backup, but I don’t have to actually deal with discs. No more scratched discs is amazing.

      You can still get the best of both worlds with piracy. Click of a button to watch media and it’ll never disappear unless you want it to (or drive failures).
