     @mousey Indeed! I'm a Plex guy myself, and recently bought an external Blu-Ray drive for just this purpose.

     @killyourfm ...then make transcoded digital backups of your privately owned physical media. Validate the backups any time you want, without wear and tear to your physical copies. 👍

     Plex, VLC, Kodi, peertube, funkwhale, all great backup validation suites. There's lots!

     @chris You're getting absolutely robbed with that import pricing, I'm sorry. And sadly, this complete series is pretty barebones, but at least it's complete and good quality.

     @killyourfm Screw it.
     Ordered from Amazon US. #TheExpanse is of my alltime favorite tv series, I'd rather have the box set on my shelf. It's mindblowing that this box set or individual seasons 4-6 aren't even available on BD in EU (and you'll need a multi-region player). There is a 32$ tax and shipping fee on top in case you were wondering. Arriving Feb 28 - Apr 16.🤞

     @chris What's your shipping timeframe look like?

     @killyourfm I know 😭 but it is what it is. Individual seasons are 40$ PER season in the UK and these are not even available in Germany or the rest of EU, except for some older DVD S1-S3s. And with all the licensing shenanigans I seriously doubt we will get a worldwide collection or even 4K release anytime soon.

     @killyourfm I've always thought that if something is worth watching a second time, its worth buying physical media.

     @slembcke No time like the present! I'm seeing them in stock at Amazon still, although the shipping time is more than a month which... worries me.

     @killyourfm Aurgh! I’ve been meaning to get the physical discs before they vanish. Hopefully not to late now. Blegh.
