Forget streaming, physical media is ripe for hoarding right now. Thrift stores, antique malls, junk stores, etc can't give this stuff away. Even 4k blurays on amazon are deeply discounted right now.
Also, rip and share your physical media if you can.
Services like these combatted convenience not price. It just happened that prices were able to be low whilst these companies could afford it.
Unfortunately due to greed and rising energy costs (but let's face it, it's greed) prices are rising which makes convenience matter less.
And to add to that, having multiple streaming services isn't convenient. Again, this is caused by greed.
