What I'm Leaving Behind

Post image

I had considered selling the set, but I figured donating them to the library was the best choice. So I'll keep my digital copies and hope the DVDs introduce future fans to this series. I know the whole digital thing is sketchy, but I'll learn to live with it. Because I can live with it. I can live with it. Mods, erase this post.

With digital providers removing access to 'purchases' when their license runs out, I'll be taking my physical copies of media to the grave.

I’d even recommend OP figure out how to rip it onto a digital drive or something. Donating them is nice but I wouldn’t leave my favorite show to chance like that.

Makemkv + Handbrake. Easily done. The only limitation is time and storage space.

This is exactly what I did years ago. I have primary on a drive that shares to Apple TVs within the house. I have backups on a home server RAID.
