Your missing the point. I keep the disk because that is the original media. Once the original media is gone so it the right to watch it.
I don't download any illegal media. I just use the physical medium I paid for. Without that medium I no longer have the right to the media.
But who would check that? A raid? This is so pointless. You are not using it, you have paid for it, you are just occupying space with a useless piece of plastic...
I don't need the Police to enforce my morals. You you get rid of the original medium you no longer have the right to watch it as that is the license.
That's just how my morals work.
That's a very silly morals indeed.
