Backing up Blu-rays and watching them on your device.
Unlike with music, you can't buy DRM-free Blu-ray quality movies outside of Blu-ray. If you stream a show or movie, even if you have "bought", you don't own it.
You can torrent blu rays. And if you already own the disc, it's probably even legal.
Someone has to rip it in the first place.
I prefer to rip my own, as well as CD's and DVD's I already own. I also do a lot with retro hardware that doesn't always have a USB port.
BluRays are also fairly decent for offline, offsite backups, though writable media is getting expensive.
