I am situated in Denmark and buy all my movies from laserdisken.dk. While by no means the cheapest option, I like supporting local businesses and doing what I can to incentivize new releases on physical media. They also have excellent support and movie knowledge to help you find what you are looking for.
Those releases he is referring to are definitely bootlegs. He should get his movies from a more respectable outlet instead.
I imagine that he started collecting DVDs because it’s a cheap way to own a physical copy of your favorite shows…
But for the love of god just go hunt for cheap Blu-ray versions instead and leave DVDs in the past.
Unless you, for whatever reason, just must own a specific DVD release because it has otherwise unreleased extra content/commentary, or it never made it to Blu-ray.
I honestly thought it was good. But the canon ending is still Toy Story 3 in my opinion.
