I'm still signed up for 2 DVD's per month but rarely use it anymore. Nevertheless, still sad to see the service end.

I didn't know that this was still a thing. It's like a CD player in a car or a 1-800-collect card.

I haven't owned a DVD player (or ANY physical media player) in over a decade!

I still have a player. There are hundreds of art films that have not made it to a streaming platform. It actually gets me to the library.

I'll be honest. I haven't actually sat and watched a movie in years. I'm more of a sporting events guy, so when I'm not watching live sports, I'm usually streaming a replay.

I used to watch 150 films a year. I'm probably half that today.
