Neither do I. It's called Redbox. I pay a max of $2.12 for uncompressed BluRay. Many times, I pay less due to coupon codes or rent one get one free promos. If I decide to buy a Bluray/4k, it's certainly not $30. So you're just exaggerating.

I’ve been watching Game of Thrones 4K on disc recently. It blows me away. The Dolby Atmos overhead effects are incredible - almost overdone, but I love it.
4K Blu-ray’s might become collectible. Tenet 4K steelbook and LOTR/Hobbit steelbook are sold out near me for the foreseeable future and people are scalping them on eBay.

Those that are streaming, how much data do you all consume in a month? The reason I ask is on another thread, I brought up Comcast's move to data cap pretty much all of their service plans with a 1.2TB per month max. If you go over, you're hit with a $10 per 50GB of usage up to a maximum of $100 extra for the overage charges. Or you can pay $30 a month to go unlimited. And before you all say, that $30 extra a month isn't that big a deal, it's the whole death by a thousand cuts. It's $30 now. What will it be in the future? Comcast can raise rates for unlimited data, your service plan, or both. Can't imagine how much data gets consumed on a 4k/HDR stream.
