Hello,
Everyone knows that both physical and digital medias have their problems and benefits.
The problem of physical media is that you have to change your disc everytime you change the game, it can break, break the disc reader. But you can trade it, sell it, lend it, and dont waste hard drive space.

the problem with physical media i..
A) i have to store it
B) owning it "forever" is such a fucking lie people tell themselves. no one has a vhs player anymore. no one has a cassette player anymore. my computer doesn't have a disc drive and therefore can't make use of cd, dvd, or even blu ray anymore. physical becomes obsolete just as fast as anything else. i can't even play my wii anymore because both my controllers broke and 1 of 2 ps3 controllers have broke now too. all those physical games are about to become trash for me.

I still have my VHS player. I still have my disc drives on my PC. So I can use what I have. Why would someone, who wants physcial media. Get ride of the device that plays it. That makes no sense. It makes sense, that a person who uses digital only to do that. No ones putting a gun to your head, and doesn't let you put a disc drive in your PC. If it didn't come with one. Nor stop you from still using VHS. You can still use them freely.

because i refuse to have a tv with every media device i've ever owned attached to it. and hell, hdtv's don't support a axial input anyways so even having a vhs is a waste.
there was a time i valued my 400+ dvd collections but that kind of clutter is a waste of life. there is no love to be found in plastic and paper.

Do what you want. But don't say no one else does this. You aren't the world. That was what I was getting at. VHS' work on HDTV's. The ATSC tuner accepts NTSC. Or you can hook it up by composite ports. If your TV doesn't have them. Get a HDMI to composite converter. You can also do passthroughs with devices. I have a DVD recorder that hooks up with HDMI. But I can also pass a composite signal through it. People have many options still.
