It does make sense. I'm not quite as hard-wired that way, but I do have a strong preference for physical media where I can get it. And I resisted the cable/satellite siren call for decades before I jumped into that briar patch. (I am now out again courtesy of the recent move; I signed up for 'Net-only at the new place, and just last month bought a Roku box, which should end up being adequate for such digital content as I actually need.)

I hope we do get discs of Discovery (and I think the odds are in favor of it, although not guaranteed). I will likely buy them if we do, precisely because that way I *will* have my own archive. The one real plus side of the shift toward digital content -- in both prose and visual media -- is that a bigger chunk of the $$ tends to get back to the creators. (And as soon as the right people figure out that they don't actually need Hollywood to finance top-tier content, the Hollywood money empire is in deep kimchi.)
