Data Hoarder

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

Obviously they must be unaware of the situation here in Australia which I guess will be progressively rolled out around the entire planet. You'll be unable to "physically own" something that's never going to exist in the first instance.

Disney has decided to cease the sale of DVDs and Blu-rays in Australia.

Import them. They're just proving that region coding is anti-consumer ;)

In Australia you can also buy Multi Region bluray players.
