With movies and shows sometimes randomly vanishing from streaming services and subscription prices climbing every month, it’s a good time to get into physical media.
Yes, the headlines around Blu-ray and DVDs tend to be grim, with retailers like Best Buy pulling discs from their shelves and manufacturers like LG ceasing production of Blu-ray players. Yet cinephiles swear by Blu-ray, and casual collectors can also enjoy the benefits of having their favorite shows and movies at their fingertips — without having to worry about that dreaded”leaving Netflix soon” banner.
Amazon’s Big Spring Sale is the ideal time for movie buffs to pick up their favorite movies and shows, with many new shows and movies, including Criterion Collection releases, getting major discounts. It’s a particularly good time to scoop up some TV shows. Many complete series sets retail for up to $200, so this is a great opportunity to own these collector edition releases at discounted prices.

Amazon is also running a special promotion on Blu-ray and other physical media; you can get three participating items for the price of two. Options are featured on this page. The best deals go beyond Amazon; whether you’re not a Prime member or prefer to spend your dollars elsewhere, some of these discounts are available at other retailers, too.
