Just wait till the Network crashes for hours or days, weeks or even months (disaster or extreme weather). My Vinyl disc/CD/Tape/DVD/Bluray collection still works. Just power the player up. Paper books need no power  (I find it amazing the number of officials that have let our backup emergency systems deteriorate, while living in Earthquake/Tornado/Flood prone areas  ) |
That's pretty much the approach I take. I've had my internet connection go out for several hours more than one. I can watch the baseball game on my iPhone using the streaming apps, but yea just pop a DVD/Blu-Ray in.
I buy my digital downloads from iTunes and download it on to my main computer. I convert it to mp4 and stick it on one of my drobos so I can watch it if Apple's servers are down or I don't have an internet connection. I generally watch via Apple TV, but it's nice having the back up. I'm a belt and suspenders sort of guy.
