    Most people do not have the space for physical media. I believe this is a big reason. Content available and cost are factors, but people that rent or move often, physical media looks like a nightmare. Physical media is ultimately better quality, and over all more consumer friendly. The own nothing, be happy, meme rings very true. I plan to live in the same location for at least ten more years, or longer. I do have walls and totes of physical media. The current economy makes it hard for people to go that route.

    There are certain physical movies that I've bought or will buy because of their timeless quality to me. Plus I can watch them whenever I like.

    I pay for Newsmax because it only takes me a few seconds of watching left-wing news sites before I have to change the channel from the smug, nonsensical fools who read the news.
    I want information, not opinions, from people who hate their audience.

    The News Networks like Fox News Network should be on the Sub Channel of the Fox over the air station...or just stream...😮

    I watch UA-cam for entertainment while I watch MSNBC on my TV all day long.
