I love physical media. I love the extras on DVDs, I love being able to display my collection, I love being able to watch stuff when the power is out, etc.
Any other fans of physical media out there? What do you like to collect? Do you have a favorite? What do you not like about physical media?
For me the obvious downside is a lack of space, and I also have nearly all my games tied to my Steam account. Might post pics of my collection later.

Does VCR count as physical media? Dang, those things are nostalgic.

all of the movies and console video games i own are physical, and i will always prefer physical books to audio/ebooks. i actually still have the vcrs and music cds i grew up with stashed somewhere.

Basically all the video games I own. When you have horrible internet, downloading and online only stuff is going to be the bane of your video game loving existence. It’s like, have fun waiting an entire week for that new video game you want to play to download. Literally walking to an actual store to buy a physical copy is so much faster.

I prefer physical media. I've already gotten burned with digital media: Walmart used to have a digital music store, but then it closed and the DRM no longer worked, so basically whatever we hadn't burned to CDs was lost. I also recently was trying to watch a movie on my computer that I knew I had a digital copy of that came with the DVD, but couldn't find it anywhere, and turns out it was from some deprecated retailer that had merged with another and was *only* available on that one retailer's site and for some reason only worked in Google Chrome.
Anyway, nothing can replace the excitement of going to a bookstore, smelling the fresh new books and getting to hold a new book and examine it for the first time.

I love collecting games that I like/wanna play which are for either for my PS2, Gameboy Advance, or N64. Though I have to make sure my old TV can work for my N64 cause big screen TV turns all of the graphic into a nightmare. I love watching DVDs and VHC since my mom made some of them into family videos. I'm fine with all of these taking up space in my room the only thing I dislike is if anyone touches them without my permission. The gaming consoles aren't really mine but since I'm the youngest my brothers "gave" them to me and in the past we lost Pokemon Firered cause someone stoled it without us knowing so ever since that day I'm known as the guard dog for the games.

i like owning cd albums from bands/musicians i like, and i have way, way too many physical books. Not fond of ereaders/audiobooks, although i do stream music digitally alongside the cds. I have fewer physical copies of movies/shows i like, more inclined to just do digital versions, in part cause i just don't watch that many movies or shows, though I do try to pick up dvd copies of my all-time favorites when possible.

I’ve only ever bought physical copies of Pokemon games, and I try to buy physical games when I can.
Not for the money (holy crap the amount physical pokemon games go for resale are way out of hand) but because I don’t want Nintendo taking my babies away.
Only times I’ve ever bought digital was because of covid (animal crossing) or because I didn’t have access to the console that the original release of a game was on (okami and the yakuza series).
