And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Renting DVDs. Just say no.
Why? What's wrong with it?

I'm big with renting DVDs, even if it takes longer than forever to watch them.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Do other folks see a screwed-up post 1246 (starts on the same line as the end of 1245)?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Cashmere beat me to my rebutal.
It's not a rebuttal. It's a mild addendum. Cashmere having some extras in no way provides all of the American market with movies and commentary they can watch on their laptop on holiday yet not own.
PPV ties you down to not just a cable-connected house, but quite probably your own.
It's a very weird point to try and make. I don't see any possibility of coverage here.

I did it. Yet again, I started an HTML tag with a single-quote. I tried to edit it, but the edit button didn't work.

Not very work-safe. What if you liked wearing fuzzy suits but you wanted to be a human?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Renting DVDs. Just say no.
Why? What's wrong with it?
For real, man. I only buy something that I *know* I'll watch repeatedly. PPV isn't an option if I want to watch, say, Citizen Kane.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
Why? What's wrong with it?
At sell-through pricing, all the money goes to the Blockbusters of the world, who milk it with forced sales, now, or late fees, and less to the creators.
Buying going to the creators, fairly directly.
Netflix is more creator-supporting than Blockbusters, but only because they are gouging less.
