Maybe you don’t have room for DVDs and Blu-rays or don’t want to own physical media. If that’s the case, buying “Fire Country” Season 1 on digital gives you the benefits of owning the media without it cluttering your shelves. Even better, you can get it from the top digital storefronts, Google Play and Apple, for about $25, saving some money compared to the physical version.
Unfortunately, there is also a downside to digitally owning media. As of the end of 2023, PlayStation removed all Discovery content, purchased or not, from all accounts, blaming it on licensing issues. No refunds were issued to those affected, and consumers simply cannot watch the content they paid for. While there were undoubtedly legal issues, it shows the problems plaguing digital purchases. You don’t actually own the media, only a license to use it, which higher powers can revoke as they please. Either way, barring another unforeseen similar circumstance, supporting “Fire Country” through digital purchases is a great way to watch Season 1 without paying for cable.
