          Buy the DVD/Blueray then download the torrent.

          You’ve paid for the media, there’s nothing wrong with having it in a format you can use.

            That’s true. I just wish there was a way to buy the movies digitally.

              There are

              Steam, Google, Amazon, and Sony all sell movies digitally (I don’t know if Amazon still does since they switched to streaming)

              But go into it knowing there’s DRM to prevent back ups and they can remove the content from your library at any time

                Most of the stuff you see while scrolling through Amazon’s streaming service is actually just stuff you can buy but not stream. If it’s not one of their own big exclusives, the service is almost unusable

      A good % of blu-rays these days come with a code that you can use to get a digital copy. I have never actually used one, so I’m not sure how it works or what bitrate/filetype, etc.
