If you don't hold it, you don't own it. Unless you take the DVD from them, you can't remove their access to the movie stored on that disc.

That’s completely bullshit. I can’t hold any of the thousands of videos on my NAS, yet they can’t remove access to them.

Dvds are another form of pollution. We don’t need rotting plastic circles to store our videos on. Pirate your movies and own it for far longer than a DVD will be readable.

Hold in your hand = physical access.

NAS counts
