A lot of crap.
But you can't buy DVDs for all of those series unless you plan on becoming an exotic car thief.
Have you sampled the L Word?
'Tell you a secret, the L World is not the L word you think it is.
It's "Love".
I only buy DVD:s for the series I relly like, such as Star Trek, NCIS, CSI NY, The X-files and a few others. So I don't have to start stealing exotic cars, at least not yet.
I must also inform you that I'm totally uninterested in the series "The L World" and I have no intention to watch it, buy it or stream it.
...AND HERE I GO AGAIN ON MY OWN!
going down the only road I've ever known
like a drifter, I was born to walk alone
and I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time
Wonderful song!
What did they cancel in the middle of the season? If something wasn't profitable of course they'll cancel it, that's been the case for the entire history of TV.
What's the cost of owning all 28 seasons of pre-streaming Trek on DVD? Probably not as bad as when they first came out but would it really cost you less than $1000?
There is a problem with streaming.......
To quote myself from the original post:
I'm not gonna pay a monthly sum to some imbecile streaming company and after about three seasons, I'll be met with "Sorry but this series is no longer available here". And when I contact them, I will get the answer that "We no longer have the rights to Star Trek Deep Space Nine but we have all seasons of Star Trek Discovery which you can watch instead." Such a reply would obviously turn me into a total destructive lunatic and I hope to avoid that.
Something similar actually happened to me when I was streaming another non-SF favorite series of mine. When I was into the third season of 9 or 10 seasons, all of a sudden it was gone from the streaming service. The only message was that it was no longer available. When I contacted the streaming service on the phone, they told me something about rights. Then the operator recommended a series which I wouldn't watch at gunpoint and added "it's very popular". When I told the operator as politely as I could that I hate that series, she couldn't understand it. Poor being. Anyway, I terminated my account to that service the same day.
It's more about replacing the scuffed/scratched/worn disks every 4 years.
Exactly.
I never had that problem and there’s sone video games I’ve been playing for 25 years, couldn’t you take better care of them?
As I've stated before, I'm very careful with my DVD:s and have them stored in a locker in a storage room with no sunshine and humidity at all. As I wrote before, this was the fourth time I've watched this episode on this DVD since I bought them in 2019.
I must also point out that it is the TNG and DS9 DVD.s that has been a continuing headache since the beginning of 2013 as you can see in the links in my original post. I have other series on DVD, most likely The X-files, CSI NY and the western Macahan Family (with James Arness as Zeb Macahan and Harris Yulin as the villain Deek Peasley) which I've probably watched as many times or more than those Star Trek DVD.s. Not to mention the first three seasons of Star Trek Voyager which I bought back in 2006 and they still works fine. I have some movies too which I bought many years ago and they stii works fine, so does also some game DVD.s from the 90:s
The problem is the bad quality of Paramount's products.
I can also tell everyone that so far, I haven't got any replies from Paramount about my complaints. Not to the complaints I sent via their website and not to the "snail-mail" either.
