    This is why they will not release the 90s shows on 4k BluRay. They don’t want anyone to actually own copies.

      They dont want people to own anything.

      They want you to pay 10/month, then $12/month, then $16/month, then $22/month, on and on forever instead.

        They’re following Rule of Acquisition number 10: Greed is eternal.

      I’m guessing it’s got more to do with the cost of rescanning and upscaling footage for shows that don’t have mass appeal.
