Own your files. Play them in native resolution. Accept no compromises.
Since you say native resolution I assume you mean the highest resolution and bitrate available. Because playing the native resolution of a DVD is way way worse than streaming.
Buying everything on Blu-ray and 4K Blu-ray would be very expensive if you watch. It's also not very convenient.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with buying Blu-ray's but don't pretend it's the perfect solution to all the problems.
I mean torrenting.
You said "own" though.
I pirate too but it's not ownership.
I don't correlate purchase with ownership.
Infact by removing the DRM I think I own my media to a far greater extent than I would if I purchased it legally.
