    I had DVD collection but already don’t watch or use/have a DVD player for longest time.(well I did have consoles that can play them. But I just never play them from disc.)

    I just buy to support the film/anime/singer, download a high quality rip and play from my archive when I needed. (So if for any chance I got swatted I can show them I already bought the media already. I did the same for digital only purchase as well as I don’t like streaming quality.)

    Like does it makes a lot difference between UHD vs a proper high bit-rate encoded rip? In my experience, if you never pause and compare side by side stepping frame, you probably won’t notice. (Yeah, bad encoding you can obviously notice, or some ultra wide with custom crop for easier encoding/smaller size).
