Let me first take you back to a much simpler time. The year was 2013 and I was a senior in high school with two main things on my mind: college and the show Glee. The latter had me obsessed, to the point where I'd buy DVD box sets of each season. When a rejection letter from my dream college convinced me my life was over, my mom cheered me up in the best possible way: by buying me the new Glee season on DVD.
Let's now pretend this scenario happened in 2023. It would likely involve my mom emailing me a link to a digital download or a Netflix log-in. And that would be...fine, I guess. There's just something special about a tangible copy of content you love. Like, framed photos and picture albums exist for a reason, you know? Plus, wrestling a DVD out of a box and nestling it into its little tray is an experience of the sort that clicking "next episode" just doesn't deliver. There's no waiting for your internet to buffer while you skip to the best scenes. And the bonus features! Special commentaries, deleted scenes, bloopers, on-set pranks!
