I'm resolved to just watch from my own collection even as I'm checking Netflix
I am over being disappointed by streaming sites.
"I wanna watch X, let's see if Netflix has it..."
*Opens webpage*
"Hmm... Netflix usually sucks, they probably wont have it. I'm just gonna say I'll watch Y off my hard drive instead. But let's still confirm that Netflix doesn't have X..."
Next thing you know, I'm watching Y off my hard drive.
Streaming services suck so much nowdays that I already resolve myself to watching something else before I even finish checking. Gotta shield myself from disappointment. Why would you pay for each channel on a TV? Just get the hard copy at that point....

Yeah, I pay for Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime and yet, I am still downloading shows that are on those services because their shitty DRM schemes limit me to 720p. It's insanity.
I got a similar story:
I wanted to rewatch the first avatar before the second came out. At the time I had Disney plus, so no problem right? Turns out that here in Germany that only included the German dubbed version, not the ov.
Guess who doesn't have a streaming subscription nowadays...
Lol I respect it, definitely not my style though. I purposefully seek out the 720p files to save HD space. Quality dif is unnoticeable to my eyes. Growing up poor is helpful sometimes... yay!
Recently I had a server failure.. I was in the middle of Sg-1.
So went to prime video to watch it..
It was 4:3 dark and the audio was horrible... Oh and ads. It has ads.
Gross :/
