I suspect we'll be seeing a Netflix release but I still prefer to be able to buy a disc of certain things for various reasons.

One thing is that I hate being at the mercy of the streaming provider when it comes to watching what I want to watch. If Netflix decides to stop streaming the feature then it may be impossible to watch in the future.

The other thing is that Blu Rays still offer far superior sound and video quality to streaming services. If you have the set-up its usually well worth the effort to watch a movie on Blu Ray as opposed to Netflix/Amazon/Hulu/Cable.

For most stuff I don't care but for the Beasties I'd definitely want to own a physical copy.

Can I just hijack this to say how I hate that when you "buy" a movie through services like Amazon, YouTube, etc. now, you don't actually have it? You can't download it, can't copy it onto a different medium (like a disc or another physical drive), etc. I get that piracy is a problem, but this is a real bitch. I have a bunch of movies that I really enjoy that I've bought through YouTube and whatnot, and one day I'm sure they'll just alter their license agreement and drop them, probably refunding me a couple nickels.

But anyway yeah, I'd like a physical copy of any film that comes out of the book tour as well!
