I've been watching a ton of my #DVD's and I realised how private it is. Unlike streaming services that continually monitor your viewing habits physical media is entirely private. The convenience of #streaming took over much of my viewing habits the last few years and while the #surveillance was in the back of my mind I accepted it, but lately I've been using streaming a lot less to take back my #privacy and I have a huge #media library. Might as well make use of it.
