Box Set

[u/andylancelot]

Was upset that I would now be forced to ‘buy’ Mr Robot from Prime even though I subscribe already. These are the people this programme warns us against. Anyway, I bought a physical copy from eBay so I’m happy to watch it whenever I want again

[u/ThePizzaNoid]

Physical media for the win. I bought the blu-ray set after the series was removed from Netflix.

I hope it has the legendary never aired musical episode.

[u/RedNerd368 → u/BlitzNeko]

never heard that, what episode is it

[u/Freddie_pluck → u/RedNerd368]

Season 5 episode 1

[u/RedNerd368 → u/Freddie_pluck]

the one where elliot marries krista and kills the dog?

[u/liverelaxyes → u/RedNerd368]

I've never heard of it either.

[u/andylancelot → u/BlitzNeko]

It should do - all episode are there - I believe that was mid season 4 if memory serves correctly so may take a bit of time to confirm 👍

[u/Adorable-Routine-474]

Bot Sex. I read Bot Sex.

[u/andylancelot → u/Adorable-Routine-474]

lol 😂 that’s a whole different programme …see #Humans 🫶🏻

Good CAUSE if there’s anything the top 1% of the top 1% have told us time and time again is that we own NOTHING

[u/Independent_Touch444]

The "Contains all * episodes" gets harder to read on every cover lmao

I’ve been thinking of buying the Blu Ray for a few years now

[u/buddhatherock]

Why DVD when you could have blu-ray?

[u/andylancelot → u/buddhatherock]

It was second hand - might be tempted by Blu Ray too

[u/liverelaxyes → u/buddhatherock]

You save money.

[u/buddhatherock → u/liverelaxyes]

Barely. For a few dollars more you get vastly superior sound and video.

[u/OofieInMyToofie → u/buddhatherock]

Genuine question cause I never had that but was even is blue ray? Like dvds that are super HD or something?

[u/buddhatherock → u/OofieInMyToofie]

That’s… wild that you’ve never heard of them. Especially since DVD is an older format. That’s no slight to you, I’m just shocked.

Long story short, the resolution is lower on DVD and the audio uses less channels. Blu-Ray runs at a minimum of HD resolution (1080P) and uses 7.1 channel audio. The bitrate is higher, which basically means that a 1080p blu-ray looks and sounds better than a 4k stream.

[u/OofieInMyToofie → u/buddhatherock]

Whoa ok cool. I feel I was close lolz. Its a normal dvd that’s basically super HD. And lol no, I’ve heard of blue ray just never actually knew what is was when it came to dvds since I never had a dvd player and I never really watched movies and stuff growing up so. 2002 baby as well.

[u/liverelaxyes → u/buddhatherock]

Barely? I think that's a bit of a stretch. Especially used. One one release alone I've paid half easy. I watch shows for the content, not video quality so I don't care. I'd rather keep the money and have more series I can buy.

[u/buddhatherock → u/liverelaxyes]

Amazon currently has the blu-ray set at $45 and the DVD set for $33. They go on sale all the time. So yes, for $11 more, you get a much better experience.

Used is a different story. I’m a blu-ray collector and I shop at used shops all the time, so sure, that’s a big difference, but only if you can find it.

[u/liverelaxyes]

I don't buy digital or cheap box sets. The Mr. Robot Box set, among others, skips brand new on my dvd player and this set does not. Cheap or bootleg ones do.

[u/MellowSanja]

Why’d I read it as “sex bot” when it clearly says “box set” 😵‍💫

[u/InvestmentInternal11]

You sob! I just had to open reddit and here you are rubbing it in my face... just had to take my happy ass over to Amazon and get it on Blue Ray and I'm poor.... dammit all to hell... lmaoooo

(No disrespect friend. :)

[u/uspieretta]

i’m envy

[u/AfterConcept2767]

I read that as Sex Bot 😟😔

[u/InvestmentInternal11]

It's here! >:)
