How soon before you stop buying physical media and why?

never, I got the dopest record collection

I stopped buying physical media and moved on to all-digital since around 10 years ago.

I gave almost all of my DVD collections to my friends. Still kept the DVD player.

My entire Audio CD collections went to my brother. He's a musician.

I have never bought any Blu-Ray disc. No Blu-Ray player too.

I still buy CDs, LPs, and Blu rays of only my favorite movies
I also have 60,000 songs in Itunes
Vinyl has been an obsession my whole life

I only buy CDs from bands that i've already got huge CD collections for cause i've followed them my whole life. Gotta be complete. Aside from the occasional bluray box set for a tv show I love, I don't buy nothing no more.

All my dvds are in binders and boxes somewhere, I never even pull them out anymore. I still display my VHS tapes cause the boxes look dope. But there isn't a VCR in the house.

Never. Hard media have a significantly higher level of fidelity than streaming, when played on high-fidelity systems. It is a shame that people are not shown how good recorded media can be.

Put it this way: Vinyl analog music discs have outsold CDs for the past several years.

I cherish my library of printed and bound books, a few of which I wrote; my library of hand-annotated, dog-eared real books.

Probably never. I still have lots of CD's and DVD's.

I'm a dinosaur - I still buy CDs, though not very often, I'm not as much of a consumer as I was. I also buy downloads but usually only if there's just one song I want. If I want a whole album, I still buy the CD.

I still buy DVDs and Blu-rays. Blu-ray only once in a while for a real favorite, but I'm actually buying more DVDs lately from the pound store (dollar store) since I found they have some great titles show up there.

One of the reasons why streaming and just watching stuff that needs the internet won't work for me is because my internet plan has limited data. If I streamed Netflix movies and box sets the way most other people seem to be able to, I would burn through my monthly data allowance in no time. And the overage charges are truly shocking.

I once streamed a movie that was glitching a lot (my wifi was dropping in and out) and I had to keep restarting. I hadn't realized at the time, that all the restarting had pushed my usage over the limit. My overage charges came in at £50 on top of my normal monthly charge. That movie effectively cost me £50 to stream. . . .

I'd rather just buy DVDs for £1 -- it's cheaper than Netflix, cheaper than streaming and going into overage, for me.

I buy blu-rays and dvds and will likely continue to do so for the rest of my life.
