If you "own" something digital yet you have to access it remotely from a stream, or can't copy and transfer it to back it up, then you don't own it.

There will be a day when these companies literally take away or shut down something you've bought, or otherwise forfeit your ability to use it. As a point of convo, I don't think many millenials understand this.
Which is why I still buy DVD's. I rather have something tangible, of which I know won't ever go off line.

If they DO issue a full Blue Ray boxset, I hope they include the test footage, since a lot of the times that differs from what ends up in the episode.
