It's interesting how a lot of people consider downloading a mkv file of an old movie not a legitimate way to acquire it.
But they do see acquiring a used digital disc (dvd or bluray) as a legitimate way.
I don't understand why. In neither scenario the original author gets any money.

@SuperDicq The used disc was paid for once, you are merely just transferring that one copy. Downloading makes a new copy that nobody ever paid for. Imo i think it's more about whether a copy exists that was never paid for at all.
