I recently started buying movies on Vudu. I was struggling for a long time with whether or not I wanted to collect media on physical disks or digitally.

Right now that’s what I’m doing but there’s always the looming fear of anything I buy being taken away if the service gets shut down.

I’m curious how others keep their media collections. Are you a Blu-ray or 4k UHD collector? Do you use a digital service like Vudu or something similar?

Tell me your thoughts!

I have a bunch of physical copies that I store standing up in one of those 200+ DVD binders. I don't have the space by the tv to store the boxes. So this solved that concern.

Also, for streaming, I have digital copies of movies that came with the physical, but I do not purchase anything digital. I have the same concern that one day my purchase will disappear.

For movies I watch a lot (kids) I put those on my jellyfin server to watch via the Roku. It's just easier and doesn't need to look or sound the best.
