I'd much rather own something than be reliant on a consistently good Wi-Fi signal and a subscription to a particular streaming service. As you say, films and programs can disappear overnight or move to a different company, and prices can go up to become prohibitively expensive.

A one-off payment for a Blu-ray set of a season seems much better for a consumer/viewer. At least that way no one can take it off you or charge you extra to watch it a year or so later.
