I felt like watching Mad Men yesterday and I was frustrated to discover that no streaming service that I am subscribed to has it.
This isn't the first time I have experienced this feeling and I find myself longing for the days of owning DVD's. I don't want to pirate stuff, so what are my options now? I know that some services like Apple TV offer "ownership" which is fine but since they only have their own catalogues, I would need to have my collection scattered all over which I don't really care for. And even though the problem isn't near the same level when it comes to music (at least, not currently), I also really enjoy owning vinyl records and knowing that I have access to them even if the internet goes down etc.
So, I guess that Blue Ray is the best option? Is new stuff released on those? And do they last or should I expect discs to lose data after 8 years or something?
