    Yeeeah no. Those are again digital only with DRM, unless I read this wrong. Who would actually purchase these now after the debacle with Paramount+? Any of these sellers may revoke your access at any time.

    Buy physical media or go sail the high seas, otherwise you cannot be sure you own anything.

      I never understood the appeal of buying digital with DRM. It’s just a more expensive “rent” tied to a service.

    Frustrated to learn that the DVD and BlueRay preorder for episodes 11-20 was pulled.

    I hadn’t been aware but just checked my preorder status to find a ‘something went wrong’ message.

      I’m in the U.S. and had pre-ordered the volume 2 DVD from Target. I got an email notification today from Target that there’s a delay in the delivery date, and requesting that I approve the delay to keep my pre-order. I went to Target’s site (not using the link in the email, of course) and gave my approval, so I still have the pre-order with them. The email confirming my approval gave a delivery date of mid-September. I just checked and Target’s still accepting pre-orders for season 1 volume 2 for DVDs and for Blu-rays again. Blu-ray pre-orders were sold out before. I’m not finding pre-order options for volume 2 offered elsewhere. Why it’s just available on Target, I don’t know.
