That's really interesting!

Not too long ago, I got unreasonably upset at a streaming service forcing me to watch ads on a subscription plan, so I went out and got a Blu-ray player. I've been periodically visiting my used DVD store, and I've been able to STOCK UP on movies for next-to-nothing. While this isn't the most low-tech solution, it's been kinda fun for someone who spent their youth with CDs/DVDs.

Old CDs and movies are decently cheap on eBay, but local sales (antique stores, library sales, thrift stores, etc.) can be amazing for stocking up on media in bulk.
