You don't get things like this with digital media
>>220941382Anon that is literally digital media.
>>220941399this
>>220941382in the the cd will rot and it will looked like someone dumb a barrel of nuclear waste in it.
>>220941382>adds this .jpg to the torrent fileswhat now, physicalfag?
>>220941382Physical media cases have gotten really cheap made over the years. The cases have shrunk it's cheap plastic unless you buy a special limited edition or steel book. The steel book packaging should be the standard packaging.
Wont be so pretty when my 3 chinned obese face is staring back at me as i struggle to get the disc out due to my sausage fingers i will just get depressed looking at myself and would prefer netflix
>>220941382The little girl was annoying. I’m glad they died.

You don't get things like this with digital media.
>>220941518The girls are dead at the end of Totoro
>>220941568brain dead take.
>>220941382>must consoooom
>>220941557When was the last time your DVD collection warned you it was leaving?
>>220941382I feel like we could remove all Ghibli movies from existence and nothing would be lost. Women would be obsessed with something else instead and there would be one less self masturbatory Jap. Plus all the upskirt pedo shit he pretends not to do is sus. All in all fuck Yoko Taro and his work.
>>220941694When I look at it & see that it is scratched & has no way of playing any longer.Or when I look at it & notice it is incompatible with the region of the DVD player I own.Or when I am somewhere without the DVD & player & am unable to watch the movie now.
>>220941557>leaves discs around un-cased on the floor scraping around collecting dust and scratching>wonders why anon can't watch kino anymore
>>220941802That's far from the most common point of failure. You can be taking it from case to player & simply scratch it on the tray & render it unplayable.That's not to mention sharing them with someone else who's likely to be more careless with them.
>>220941836Be more gentle, use high quality disc players and don't give your DVD's to niggers
>>220941799>>220941836stop letting retards handle your shit
>>220941438physical faggots have been defeated
>>220941836everyone who lived through 90s-00s knows this. These things would just happen and you'd always have a dummy friend you'd lend your shit to at least once because in these times people used to have casual friends and multimedia was more scarce so it was a normal thing to do>>220941936>>220942735zoomie niggers, stop masturbating to someone else's past
>>220941421>>220941557This only happens with very specific pressings. 99% of CDs, CD-Rs and DVDs will be fine as long as you keep them in their respective cases. My oldest CD is from 1984 and still looks and sounds clean.
Someday, we will see the emergence of even more soulless technologies that will make even streaming services seem analog in comparison.
>>220942828>My oldest CD is from 1984 and still looks and sounds clean.it's still degraded
>>220942828it'll probably outlast anything from the 90s or 00's
>>220941557I've never had this shit happen. I have DVDs, CDs, PS1 games etc. from decades ago that still look brand new.But at the same time i also had a friend who had all his games and dvds just scattered around the floor and throw them around, so i guess there really are retards like that.
>>220943665when i was a kid i found some porno laserdiscs in a box in an alley that were in worse shape. treasured that shit.
>>220941715We could remove (You) from existence and nothing would be lost.
>>220941399OP BTFO
>>220941382Coming from LPs and cassettes CD sleeves seemed so weird at first...Then you started getting the big fat ones, especially with double CDs, the ones with the thick plastic case thingy
>>220941382
>>220943889All Ghibli movies are for faggots, women and pedophiles (the bad kind).
>>220941421I've never had a CD rot I've been playing a CD from 2000 on repeat for 26 years wtf are you dirty half wits doing with your media?
The only time physical media matters is when no one else has the decency to rip the disc and post it online. I'll use myself as an example and post this pasta from a few years back.I finally ripped my bluray of season 14. I guess they didn't bother upscaling the deleted scenes like they did for the episodes themselves so vidrel's res is all we will ever get. All files are the raw, untouched files obtained from the BD, hence the filesizes.https://mega.nz/folder/gAFRFaZS#Y3VJmvIKvSpkKpsZbnUtlwhttps://pastebin.com/9CTc4HwM>00004Large Marge in 1080p>00005Helter Shelter in 1080p (Marge wears a corset and Victorian dress here)>00008-10Disc 1 menu animations (Has Marge in her Victorian dress undergo BE)>00011-19Deleted scenes for Large Marge (including the sink scene but unfortunately, not the "eyes up here" promo)
>>220944772thats the yellowest fever you got anon but doing the lords work
>>220944713...and the good kind?
>>2209436659 times out of 10 people who complain about disc rot or swelling batteries or dead batteries are just people who don't respect their possessions. Actually turn your device off instead of leaving it in sleep mode 24/7, Don't leave your shit under the sun, have a tuperware box or something to put all your games instead of throwing them all over the floor. Even my old PS1 and N64 games still work fine because I'm not a fucking savage who throws their own things around like a hooting monkey.
>>220941399physical/digital is not the same as analog/digital
>>220945100it is and thats why laserdiscs are peak medium
>>220945127laserdisc is optical media just like dvd and bluray
>>220945158its completely analog optical media like vinyl or a CD
>>220945173>its completely analog optical mediano it's not. in laserdisc only the video signal is analog. which doesn't make it "peak" anything
>>220945428some had both analog and digital audio but always analog audio
>>220943509Your brain's the only thing degraded here.
>>220941399There’s no coming back from this OP. I’m willing to stand as your second. Let me know when you’ve finished composing your haiku.
>>220945568>LaserDiscs stored analog video using a composite signal format, >Audio was originally recorded as analog stereo using frequency modulation. Later discs introduced digital audio using pulse-code modulation (PCM), and by the 1990s, some titles supported digital surround sound formats such as Dolby Digital and DTS. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaserDisc
>>220945620by modern standards the early revision with both analog video and audio was not that good. how is that peak exactly when technology that came with going fully digital blow those formats out the water?this "analog optical media" you are referring to is just very limited and bad quality.
>>220941382I own that DVD and never noticed that. Neat
>>220941421Lol no it won't. I've never had single CD do this if anything they will scratch and become unplayable before they rot
>>220945127>mediumlaserdiscs are pretty large
>>220945620yes, every laserdisc has analog audio because its partof the spec. every single one.
>>220941382I don't need or want things like that. I want to be able to watch the movie or series
>>220945686There is no difference between acting dumb and being dumb anon
>muh physical>muh streamingI just pirate everything and buy a physical copy if I feel like it, then leave it sealed because I've already got a copy of it on my hdd>buh buh wha if hdd failAnything rare I keep copies on multiple drives, anything common can be easily re-downloaded ever
>>220945711
>>220945000>>220943665This. All my childhood media is fine, meanwhile my barbarian friends who never take care of their shit are constantly complaining about shit breaking/not working.
>>220941382Someone could make an incredible piece of art with a physical DVD + deleted scenes + extra content as the substrate. We got some amazing stuff (Lord of the Rings obviously, but IIRC the Hellboy DVD was packed out) but something made to deliberately encourage the audient to explore the content to get the complete narrative could be chiefs kiss. And with the experience from online ARGs there is a lot more to fold into it now.
>>220945711If you think it's funny to be an asshole, most people think you're just an asshole.
>>220941421If you live in a swamp, maybe.
>>220945694it doesnt say that though
>>220946317they have to be able to play in older laserdisc players so obviously they have older formats but optical media was just big enough for both
>>220945100What the fuck is analog digital. What are you talking about. DVDs are digital you fucking cretinous retard.
>>220943665>>220945807I'm legit perplexed by people who cannot or do not respect their own possessions and treat them roughly as though they're indestructible. I see people doing this with all kinds of items, not just discs and cartridges. People leave expensive power tools/batteries in the elements, bang them around, let them get dirt and shit all over them, etc. If you have the same thing but it's clean they'll make fun of you for "not using it." No, I just take care of the things I have. I don't get it, you paid for it.I think it correlates with poverty. Wealthy people tend to be better about taking care of their things because they realize the value in them, even if they're relatively inexpensive. Even then there are exceptions.
>>220948030I'll give you the perspective of a povvo. As a kid and throughout my teens my family had to move many times due to being rentpigs and landlords deciding to sell up. We've had to have stuff put in storage multiple times. We've had to store things in a friend's garage. So many of my things went missing, got water damaged, got lost in the whirlwinds of moving.Honestly I'm at the point now where I hate owning a bunch of stuff because I don't trust the roof over my head, so I've become minimalist. I do take care of the few things I do own though.
>>220945000I had this one fucking retard friend who didn't have a memory card for a PS2 and he'd just leave it switched on with the games running the whole time so he wouldn't lose game progress. It wasn't even a money problem he just didn't give a shit about memory cards. And he of course left the discs all over the floor as you'd expect.Can't believe how long the laser lens lasted before it got fried, and the best part is that he had some gamestop extended warranty so they just gave him a new one and they didn't even ask for the old one which I got off of him for nothing and then had the lens replaced for a few bucks.
>>220941421Realize hard drive failure rate is higher than disc rot?
just watch it on netflix and then buy a funko pop of one of the characters
>>220948579Which is why people back up the shit on their hard drives. Meanwhile you have one copy of that DVD.
>>220948015the method of storagephysical:>dvd, bluray, etc. digital: >streaming, external hdd etc...
>>220944772>The only time physical media matters is when no one else has the decency to use THEIR physical media so I don't have to
>>220948855Not what the words mean. DVDs, Bluray etc are digital AND physical. Analog refers to things like vinyl, VHS and laserdisc. It's about the encoding. Sure, if you want to delineate between physical and digital even if the physical ones are still encoded digitally, that is useful. But I am just pointing out that "analog digital" is not a term and it makes no sense at all.
>>220948916Yeah that's what anon said. Is there an issue with that? The point is that rather than everyone having to have physical media, it literally takes one guy to rip it and then we can access it for free.
>>220941382You're right. I'm proud to always be a physical media chad no matter what. I reject the digital jew.
>>220949481>Analog>VHSAnalog would be actual film reels
>>220948030Shouldn't it be the opposite? My family was poor as fuck so i always made sure to take care of the things i actually owned and could buy myself. Wealthy people often treat posessions like shti since they know they or their parents can just buy new ones.
>>220949499my issue is it's easy to act smug about not having physical media and long as someone does FOR YOU.so yes, you do like physical media, you're just a phony about it.
>>220949698VHS is analog though. It's encoded in magnetic particles but it is analog. It's not stored in 1s and 0s like with digital.
>>220949735I don't see the issue. Some guy rips a DVD now I get to have it on my hard drive. I'm grateful that the physical media existed to be ripped, but that's about it. I have no interest in taking up my own limited living space with that stuff.
>>220945100>physical/digitalThat's not a thingMaybe you mean physical/streaming?
>>220949481some words have multiple meanings, stop being such autists
>>220948855>external hddLiterally physical
>>220950185only if you ripped your own media, pirating is digital.
>>220948015why don't you ask chatgpt instead of getting angry?
>>220941399Buy the record if you want analog. It was pressed from a blank that was made from: the digital master
>>220941382>You don't get things like this with digital mediaThere's no way to make a digital download special. Physical is the way to go.
>>220951056>>220941382I mean these are cool and all to a point but the end of the day it’s just mass produced consumer plastic.If you have a bookcase full of these it ‘s no less virgin coded than having an anime figurine wall
>>220951463I recognise her from something but dont know what
>>220951502Maybe this will help jog your memory, happy to help
>>220951463Oh no, the evil mass consumer slop, however will I live with myself? Pffft, if it makes me happy I'll buy it, your sneering disdain is irrelevant to me.
>>220951564oh I remember it was back to the future
>>220948713You can burn new cds and it will last even longer
>>220950103>>220950315You can just admit when you are wrong yknow
