I cancelled Netflix and prime and went back to piracy a few months ago, it's been a nice blast from the past

In addition to piracy, I've also been checking out DVDs from my local library. It's kinda fun.

Surprised myself because I half expected I'd miss the convenience of Netflix, but I haven't missed it even a little.

"Was I a good streaming platform?"

"No."

The benefit of the library DVD is it takes away the "What will we watch tonight?" conversation. You're going to watch the DVD.

It just switches the question to the library: "What will we borrow tonight?"
