tessaray August 1, 2019 Share August 1, 2019 So, I don't feel bad now about buying the 9/10/11 Doctors on dvd recently (to replace my digital dvr rips). There's definitely still a use case for physical media - especially when streaming rights go to services that I have no interest in subscribing to. https://variety.com/2019/tv/news/doctor-who-hbo-max-streaming-rights-1203288093/ Quote HBO Max is stepping into the world of Time Lords, sonic screwdrivers and the TARDIS. The forthcoming WarnerMedia streaming platform has acquired the exclusive streaming rights to “Doctor Who,” with all 11 seasons of the historic BBC series coming to the service upon launch in spring 2020. The news comes as part of a deal with BBC studios which means the streamer will be the home of future “Doctor Who” seasons after they air on BBC America. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/100931-doctor-who-in-the-media/page/15/#findComment-5493312

But at least it will still have a streaming home. For me, it means I have to finish streaming Tennant and Smith’s eras on Amazon Prime before Spring of next year. I’m still on the fence about subscribing to any streaming service beyond my original Big 3 of Netflix, Hulu and Amazon Prime.
