    However, De Luca and Adby said the loss of the revenue stream that came from DVDs has pushed them to make better movies.

    Personally I think it translates to taking fewer risks.

    What’s a guy gotta do to get a commentary track nowadays?

      Invite the guy who read every interview about the movie

    So reverse the trend. Stop licensing your catalog for streaming and sell physical media.

    I also miss the days where I bought physical media. These days, it’s hard to find something new that interests me, is actually available for purchase, and/or isn’t a super limited collectors set with steelbook etc that needlessly inflates the price. Good thing I have decades of physical media to, um… sit on a shelf unwatched, mostly. >_>
