  • Star Trek Discovery

    From Al Kaiser@1:142/926 to All on Thu Jan 16 04:34:52 2020
    The first two seasons of Star Trek Discovery is out on DVD on Netflix. I have it in my queue but for some reason the first disc of season one is on short wait and has been for a couple of months now. That seems to be the hold up. Once I get that first disc I can start to get the others which don't seem to
    be on a wait list.

    This iths only way I would watch it. I would never pay commercial TV to subscribe to a series.

    I'm surprised the DVD exchange is still popular?

    Well I don't think that is is going to go away too soon. Don't forget that with 7.1 sound you can't stream that. So the only way if you have a 7.1 or
    7.2 sound system you need either HD or 4K, (and eventually 8K), media to play 7.x ATMOS systems.

    That and there is a LOT of stuff out there that you can't stream at all...

    I've thoguht about changing my Netflix to 'stream plus DVD' - even if only
    one at a time... Just to see stuff I can't stream...

    Well after about two months I finally got Star Trek DIscovery, Season One, Disc One from Netflix. I reserve judgement on the "New TreK" until after I watch the first two seasons. Though, I see a lot of people and aliens die!
