    Disney are not releasing the DVD the BBC are. As they do with seasons of Dr Who. They have not given up on physical releases. Yet.

    When everyone can afford 1Gbps fibre to home and has their house all
    wired up to a central hard drive there'll be no more need for physical
    media. You'll then be able to download a 4K movie at Blu-ray quality in
    about 20 minutes, which will be quicker than going down to the shops and
    back to buy it. If you've only got fibre to cabinet it will probably
    take at least 5 hours, so even streaming it at that quality is currently impossible without fibre to home.

    The stupid morons killed off Blu-ray the moment they imposed copy
    protection on it, making it impossible for any modern PC to even play 4K
    discs back without hacking them, since the hardware to decode the copy protected disc was removed from every Intel CPU about a decade ago and
    was never part of any AMD CPU to even begin with.

    paid for, but which they claim I don't own, in 576i25.

    Buy a VHS/DVD combo and copy your VHS tapes to DVD...

    Although, as a licence fee payer the BBC have supplied you with
    an online source of [nearly] every "Doctor Who" episode with
    their iPlayer service, so in a way they have provided you with
    an upgraded viewing experience to your VHS tapes... free of
    charge.

    Buy a VHS/DVD combo and copy your VHS tapes to DVD...

    Although, as a licence fee payer the BBC have supplied you with
    an online source of [nearly] every "Doctor Who" episode with
    their iPlayer service, so in a way they have provided you with
    an upgraded viewing experience to your VHS tapes... free of
    charge.

    :-)

    Do VHS/DVD combos exist?

    You won't find a new one of those anywhere (except maybe unopend boxes
    on places like eBay). They stopped making them years ago. Even some
    type of DVD player, i.e. a Blu-ray / 4K player, will be getting
    difficult to find because companies are no longer making those either (Panasonic might be the last one still making them).

    Well, not free since it is part of the TV license.

    I don't have a TV to play them back on.
