      I want a digital format that i can store locally. I think i’m forced to buy blu-rays and a blu-ray drive.

            Ah. Yes. Sorry. I missed that. I started with DVDs, since mine came with a reader. Haven’t moved to blu-ray, yet, for the same reason.

            You also need the right Bluray drive that can be re-flashed before you can extract the contents. If only it was as easy as DVDs.

                There are guides out there to do it or you can just buy one that’s already been flashed to bypass DRM. I bought one 5 or 6 years ago to do it and quit after maybe 10 Blu-rays because it takes forever if you want to compress via handbrake and it’s much easier just to torrent directly unless it’s something obscure.
