Good question Tom.

We mainly stream these days (Netflix & Prime) although I do still buy the occasional Bluray & 4K UHD disc. But our circumstances are somewhat unusual at the moment; we're undergoing a major house refurb out in Italy so our beloved cinema is currently in various large boxes so we're *reduced* to watching content on our 65" LG OLED & let me tell you that as an experience it's a very pale imitation of the real thing.

As a result I'm less content-critical and won't consider playing anything off my favourites list until I can enjoy them properly when the cinema's back up & running. I suspect that when that happy day arrives my intake of new physical discs will increase.

Quality via streaming is generally very good with just the occasional day when bandwidth is restricted / gremlins get into the system and we have VHS-style picture & SQ. mad So all of my favourite films would always be watched via physical disc*, to max-out the SQ & PQ.

VK says he watches an "average" number of films; I'd be interested to know what the average is. In general I much prefer the one-off hit of a film to a long series, although there have been some amazing series too. Once we start watching a series, my wife will always want to see it to the end so I've got to be pretty sure of my footing before I dive into a new one, particularly if it's going to be 50+ episodes.

* Where the disc is available of course; often it isn't. Disney is 'leading' the way with NOT releasing discs of even modern hits, to try to encourage people like me to subscribe. I understand the business model but it's still frustrating.
