i’m just having a discusion, so don’t think i have any other intention.

do you really need to download full blu-ray discs though? a 1080p rip is only 10-13gb depending on length of movie. animated movies don’t usually top 5gb. i just download rips, and usually only 720p cause my computer doesnt like to play 1080p. i don’t care about a full disc, i don’t have a blu-ray burner, i don’t need menus i just want the movie.
