Not to mention, you pay a subscription your whole life, but you never actually own the media you pay for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the powers that be decide that a movie is controversial for any reason, it can be <strong>heavily edited<\/strong> or banned, and you have to go through a bunch of trouble to find it online!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just look at how many changes have been introduced into the Disney classics!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you get your media on a CD, or you get music records, they now belong to you. You can thrift a player or a laptop that supports the media.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you take good care of the items, you might even leave your favorite music and films to your children!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Besides, the physical media comes with a <strong>little ritual<\/strong>. You have to clean the CD, put it in the player, and later return it to the box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is slower than just playing something on Netflix, but slowness is the whole point of going analog!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5.
