Tons and tons of Movies and TV shows are streaming-only releases nowadays.

Also, a bunch of old movies get restored in HD and released on streaming services only. First example that comes to mind is the classic 1993 comedy Look Who's Talking Now.

Adding insult to injury, a bunch of old movies get remastered physical releases... on DVD only. That's right. SD content encoded with a 30 year old codec.

So if I want to watch a movie from my childhood in HD, more often than not my only legal course of action is to subscribe to a streaming service.

Very sad, really.
