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.

Best play to buy 4k movies after Best Buy? (alien.top)

I love buying physical media and then ripping it to my storage server for viewing on Plex. The quality is always considerably better than a streaming service.

Where do you guys think will be the best place to buy 4k movie discs after Best Buy stops selling them next year. I’m currently looking at the list of movies for sale at BB and the prices are really awesome on a lot of great titles. I know Amazon will always be an option, but I hate having only 1 option.

Thoughts? Is there a 3rd party site that I don’t know about, not including eBay?

I used to go multiple times a week, then they took away PC games.
I used to go multiple times a month, then they severely reduced PC Part selection.
I used to go several times a year, now they remove physical media.
There's no reason to go to Best Buy, except maybe on Black Friday.
