I still like to have my favourite movies on disc (Blu-ray where possible) so I can watch them anytime easily. But I do take your point.
Unless you have every streaming service you can't guarantee finding any particular content upon demand. As an example, last week I decided to filter my Netflix by Tom Cruise movies. Netflix had only four movies available at that date. Stan have others etc.
I remember when I only had a foxtel subscription and as such almost everything was found there. And I paid a single subscription fee. Now I need a fox subscription (price hasn't reduced) Stan, Disney, Netflix, binge etc. All with subscription fees. The sum totalling more than I paid before.
Do you remember when ATM fees were $0.20 cents..? Then the Reserve Bank decided to allow marketplace competition to drive prices down. Private ownership of atm's was encouraged. Almost overnight fees rose to $2.
I've noticed that competition often encourages prices to rise, in the end costing the consumer more.
Anyway back to topic; whenever I want to watch the entire Star Wars Saga etc I watch from my own library... Anytime. No hassle.
