Hi, my name is Alejandro Im 27. I just connected with something I was so passionate about when I was a 9 year old. I used to desing, try to, or download and print dvds covers for pirate games and movies we could not afford. I took off covers from cases I did not like or lost the disk, print a new cover and tossed it into it to house the disc I liked, for example Tron: Legacy was one of them. I really wanted to somehow print a desing on the disk it self, that would have been amazing for my child self.I have always been a techy kid although I do not look like the type of person who would be into physical media I am now I believe streaming has ruined the experience, maybe the early Netflix was something, but now is ruining our lifes. I stopped enjoying movies I loved, and I hate that. The whole ritual of taking off the disk, put it in on, and intentionally watch a movie changes everything. And Im chasing that feeling. Putting some craft in it like taking care of how my physical media looks is something Im exited for. I dont want a physical Netflix, but a curated selections of films y truly watch againg and again. For now copys or clones will have to do, I found a place in my country that does that, but they are more about making money out of their business and delivering new releases, they dont really care if the slipcover looks good, they do offer to print a slipcover, a case and maybe a printed disk, but i dont think they will put much love into it, thats why im here. Hopefully in the future, when my economy is better I will be capable of paying for original copys but now its not that time. I wont lie, I am a pirate, torrents, trackers, p2p are still on my dictionary, but even that is way to convinient, dangerously closer to a plex server almost netflix convinient, not ritual, not human. Dangerously closer to short term, binge watching, tiktok kind of media consumption, etc. Well what ever. So happy to be here
