Those releases he is referring to are definitely bootlegs. He should get his movies from a more respectable outlet instead.

I imagine that he started collecting DVDs because it's a cheap way to own a physical copy of your favorite shows...

But for the love of god just go hunt for cheap Blu-ray versions instead and leave DVDs in the past.

Unless you, for whatever reason, just must own a specific DVD release because it has otherwise unreleased extra content/commentary, or it never made it to Blu-ray.

Do you have any physical media outlets you recommend?

What even would that be? Like a CeX in the UK?
