And the companies are likely thrilled, because they clawed back the concept of ownership and convinced people rental is best. So, they get paid a monthly fee for access, and people get to keep nothing. It's a huge win for corporations, especially after they had been giving people ownership of...

Yeah, I saw this early and panic bought the Community Blu set. Eh, it's not like I wouldn't have bought it eventually anyway. And it was the only one among the ones pulled during the current moral panic I didn't already have.

Hey, the latest moral panic might help people remember that ownership is better than rental! That's potentially great for future physical media releases. I know Mill Creek, for example, is happy since 30 Rock has sold out everywhere. And I'd assume Scrubs is next. If I were more conspiracy...
