Everyone loves a good Criterion Collection or Shout Factory release. But what’s a good website from which to buy digital media? Do you buy digital media? Or do you just buy physical and rip? Or do you just sail the seas?

Games seem to be itch.io or Steam, maybe a Humble Bundle or Epic/GOG exclusive here and there. But what about movies and music? What about books and audiobooks?

    I just think we’ve let the mega corps like Amazon undercut every aspect of our lives. I’d rather give money to my locally owned bookstore than fund another spaceship for billionaires.

      I definitely won’t criticize. It seems like a reasonable option for a lot of people.

      From my perspective, if I had an unlimited budget I’d be buying hundreds of books a year. I don’t do that for obvious reasons, but 20% less books to support a smaller business is a pretty big sacrifice.
