or streaming. The chart above summarizes the results across the
three methods of viewing. From this it’s clear most prefer DVDs,
with streaming a close second. Trailing by quite a distance is down-
loaded video.
The comments on this question are all over the map:
“DVD can be played most anywhere, on any large screen TV. The
others rely on a computer or smart TV.”
“I don’t care for DVDs these days ... I haven’t turned on my
television’s DVD player for months. My TV viewing habits have
changed to Netflix, Roku and Chromecast.”
“I like the downloadable the best because it’s quick, convenient
and I can take it anywhere and watch it even offline. DVD’s are
OK, but have to be stored somewhere and are subject to dam-
age. Streaming is limited by connection availability and speed.”
“We have hundreds of DVDs and Blu-ray discs in binders in our
house. Guess how often we actually get them out? Rarely. Now
we have streaming Internet like YouTube, Netflix, Vudu, Flixster,
etc... and we use those on an almost daily basis.”
“I prefer DVDs that way you do not have to worry about com-
puter crashes and losing the material.”
