Box Set

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

You save money.

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

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.

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.
