Once again, this is why physical copies are always the way to go. They can't take stuff away from you once it is safe in your shelf or in your hard drive. Also, I love how streaming was presented as the sure way to beat piracy, only to make piracy look better than ever.

Definitely. Now days if I ever watch anything really good on a streaming service I'm like I hope they release this in physical because I fear they may take that content off.

I could be wrong but if I remember reading correctly another pro about piracy is that it takes roughly half the data to download the content than if you were to stream it in the same resolution. Download once and can continually rewatch it over and over without wasting data. I'm sure many have unlimited data so this isn't an issue.

Streaming services is great because it's so convenient and gives a lot of content but the gamble is you viewers have absolutely no control of it what so ever no matter how much you complain.  Just bend over and take it up the @$$. They even increase the price and there's nothing you can do about it.  People complain like if Netflix (or any other streaming service) is going to increase their price they're going to end their subscription; and then what? Jump to a different streaming service that will do the same? or better yet buy physical? Cause then that's great!
