How does one keep their system secure with all that torrenting? A large mkv of a new movie seems like an effective container to deliver a payload.

Odd choice just pirate and teach others how to aswell. Hurts in this case Netflix way more

Yes but after a while you may start to yearn for some rarer things as well. There’s still lots of pre-lost media out there on rotting dvds waiting for custodianship that I haven’t been able to find online. There’s also some newer HD rereleases having single channel and lower quality or something, so finding the original dvds is better sometimes.

Pirating can be legally cut off. DVDs can’t

They’ve been trying for how long now? The pirates always win in the end.

With streaming companies owning the content, buying DVDs is just another way of financially supporting the same companies for worse quality.
Even when one platform is taken down, there are new ones launched in their place. Nothing guarantees that DVDs will continue to be produced in perpetuity, just as digital copies of video games are progressively becoming less and less prevalent.

Yard sales, pawn shops, thrift stores, and the humble library system can help mitigate that money working it’s way up to the coked up pedos that run the film studios.
