Physical media fans often face a choice: subscribe to a mystery box, rent discs, or buy titles outright. Each option has its advantages depending on your budget, storage space and viewing habits.
Subscription. Mystery boxes like our Movie Subscription Box, Vinyl Subscription Box and Video Game Subscription Box offer surprise selections at a lower cost per item. They’re great for discovery and make excellent gifts.
Rental. Some services still rent discs by mail, but they often have limited catalogs. Rental is best if you want to watch a movie once without owning it. However, as we saw with Netflix’s DVD shutdown, rental services can disappear.
Buying. Purchasing individual titles gives you permanent ownership. If you know exactly what you want and plan to rewatch, buying may be the best investment. Second‑hand discs in our store are affordable, and you can resell or trade them later.
Consider mixing and matching. Subscribe to discover new favorites, rent when you’re curious but uncertain, and buy must‑own titles. Whichever path you choose, Loved Again Media has options to suit your needs.
