Wanted to re-watched something I couldn't find on torrents in good quality, so I bought a cheap Blu-ray player and holy shit it was painful.

I'd forgotten how annoying all the warnings and menus were; JUST PLAY THE BLOODY SHOW!

As great as just playing the show is, I actually really like DVD/Blu-ray menus because of the little extras you get on some of them. It makes the disk feel more special compared to straight up video files on a storage device. The warnings can be a little annoying, but otherwise I don't mind as much.

Also, I'm lucky enough to have yet to find a DVD/Blu-ray that stutters or has audio glitches on the Vizio Blu-ray player I got at a thrift store, so I'm lucky.

I haven't watched the extra content in years, just don't care, Matrix was probably the last time I watched that stuff.
