I rarely buy DVDs and when I do it's a TV series that I couldn't get through my cable provider's vod system. And every time I do that, the lack of user-friendly-ness of a DVD always pisses me off.
VOD: sit on couch, use remote, watch an entire season.
DVD: get up, put disc1 in dvd player, get back to couch, use remote, waste time on watching an annoying anti piracy video at the beginning of the DVD, change language and or subtitle settings, watch 1 or 2 or 3 episodes, get up, take disc 1 out of the dvd player, put disc 2 in the dvd player,... , waste more time on an annoying anti piracy video, change language and or subtitle settings (AGAIN),... put disc 3 in the dvd player... waste more time on an annoying anti piracy video (at this point I'm so fed up with hearing that annoying guy tell me not to steal a car, a purse or a bear that I'm seriously starting to regret having spent money on a piece of archaic technology).
I've got an internet connection, so I could download every movie or tv episode out there... I could then put it on an external hd and watch it on my TV. But I don't. Instead I pay a lot of money to my cable provider because their system is easier to use.
