Then they shouldn't have established that streaming nor digital copy is free from the get go then.

When did they establish that? If you are talking about the pirated downloads people have provided, that is not something the companies approved of.

The industry themselves established it legally.
Every tv station that streams their shows online.
Every digital download in dvd/blu-rays we buy.

All of which was established before Netflix started streaming, Amazon started selling, iTunes started selling.

Only a moron pays for something they have been getting for free, but look at the bottled water industry, nothing but morons in the world.

I don't consider DVD downloads free. You still have to buy the DVD to get them. Netflix allows you to have access to all kinds of content without having to worry about collecting DVDs. I'm not saying you have to get it. Its a personal choice. I just believe streaming is only going to get bigger.

I'll give you the free sites that stream. I could see a lot of that continuing to be Free.

See I don't care about the medium so much as the content like deleted scenes, and commentary is there.

Like if they found some way to make that available either on Netflix or some other service I wouldn't mind paying.

Otherwise I'd rather just have DVDs

Deleted Scenes and commentary are one of the things that make DVDs and Blue Rays still worth it. But I'm not sure if the PR DVDs will have much of that.

For me, it's enough that the DVD/Bluereay releases are full season box sets and that the episodes are uncut on them. Maybe some raw behind the scenes stuff from MMPR S3/Zeo/Turbo/Space or from any other season here and there as a bonus track to each respective DVD/Blueray, but for me the episodes are more important as behind the scenes is just an add-on for me...

If they can do that, I'm buyng my copies of all seasons, including the first two movies on DVD.

But what I'd really like to see is some soundtracks re-created along with the instrumental versions of them in a CD release or something like that (like the Tenga Bye Bye song from MMPR S3, Fight from MMPR S2, and so on).
