I love buying physical media and then ripping it to my storage server for viewing on Plex. The quality is always considerably better than a streaming service.
Where do you guys think will be the best place to buy 4k movie discs after Best Buy stops selling them next year. I’m currently looking at the list of movies for sale at BB and the prices are really awesome on a lot of great titles. I know Amazon will always be an option, but I hate having only 1 option.
Thoughts? Is there a 3rd party site that I don’t know about, not including eBay?

Target or Walmart (price match with amazon if the online price is lower)
Walmart maybe? It’s a shame best buy is going to stop.
As a side note, I have a question for you or anyone else in datahorder that uses the BluRay ripping method.
Do you consider the BluRay disc as a method of redundancy?
It seems like a reasonable idea to store all your rips in 1 or 2 hard drive that aren’t raided. It saves so much space and the only real downfall is if it fails you have to rip the disc’s again. I’m just curious of other pitfalls doing it this way. The only one I can really think of is that you might lose your media server indexing data, but that can be easily backed up somewhere else.
Just curious if anyone has gone this method and how it went.
