You Bought It. But Do You Own It?

from Catalyst Corner · host Catalyst Creations

Physical media is disappearing. DVDs and Blu-rays are shrinking on store shelves, gaming is moving toward digital storefronts, and streaming has become the default way we consume entertainment. But in exchange for all that convenience, have we quietly given up ownership? This week on The Breakdown the death of physical media, why digital purchases aren't always as permanent as they seem, and what could be lost when our collections exist entirely online. Then, Off the Cuff asks why nothing beats that magical movie theater experience, and whether streaming at home can ever truly replace it. On The Watchlist, we're checking out Obsession, Backrooms, They Will Kill You and The Mummy to decide whether they're a See, Stream, or Skip. And finally, The Pulse: What's one entertainment trend you'd bring back? Video stores? Midnight premieres? DVD special features? 20+ episode TV seasons? Physical collections? Let us know what deserves a comeback.
