    I mean… no shit? Netflix’s business is not making good films or TV shows. It is getting people to sign up to Netflix and then forget about it for a few years.

    It sucks because I very much prefer my media on blu-ray (and then on my plex server). And we are increasingly seeing media that is very much dependent on HDR and gets demolished by encoding and bandwidth limitations. But… that is more a “problem” of the creators not realizing their medium (similar to how a Nolan mix is perfect if you have a center channel but… most TVs and cell phones don’t have one).

      Flanagan made Hill House and Midnight Mass for Netflix. So it’s not like there aren’t at least some good shows.

        Even though my wife subscribes to Netflix, I would buy Midnight Mass on Blu-ray. They are missing out on taking our money twice.

          Yep. Would have gladly bought more than one season of Bojack Horseman, two seasons of Stranger Things, Hill House in 4K/HDR… but no. I’m glad there are preservationists keeping stuff like this from disappearing at the whim of corporate (all hail etc.).
