That is the bed they made and now the studios must lay in it.
I don't care if they start distributing microSD cards, there MUST be a physical distribution format that is not linked to an online subscription.
I've always been surprised its remained optical media for so long. I'd have bought a USB drive with a season of television on it. No doubt they'd fuck it up with another DRM scheme.
I'm resigned to the fact that if there is no offline distribution in the not too distant future, I will still build a library of the media I want from other sources.
Pretty soon it will ONLY be the pirates that have access to a lot of this content. You should think of it is a global community service.
