Why is it that buying blu-rays, actual physical media for films feels sketchy as fuck these days.
Like, look for Zardoz on Amazon and the top result is streaming, but then you get a DVD, the Spanish version of the film, a VHS, three more DVDs with various poor reproductions of the cover that look like Chinese bootlegs, and finally a blu-ray for $140.
Come on guys. I'm trying to buy your shit to put on my media server when I could just be hitting the torrents.
Anyone have a suggestion for a good online store to go through instead of Amazon?
