I went full digital years ago because I saw the writing on the wall for physical releases. I knew damn well that this was a possibility, but if they ever take my library from Movies Anywhere, I'll be the first to grab a torch and pitchfork.

If you haven't already done it, don't forget to connect your movies anywhere account to other online playform so that the movies are unlocked across multiple platforms so if one goes down you still have them available elsewhere.

Although it is unfortunate when the internet drops at home, but I have a small collection of movies on Blu-ray for just that scenario.

All of the purchases are through a few other vendors, not from MA directly, they just link back to that service.
