“Internet get overloaded” — everybody watching videos online while “sheltering in place”

Which is why I like DVD's and a DVD player, as outdated as that has allegedly become.

People are too dependent on something as fragile as the internet.

I bought a home server (a Synology “NAS” - Network Attached Storage) which feeds Plex running on my AppleTV and ripped all my DVDs and BluRays. I have over 500 movies ready to watch at any time without having to plop a disc in a machine. I get movie discs from other sources such as friends, too.

Yep. I have many Disney/Pixar/kids’ VHS, some vinyl (but not a crank Victrola) and a ViewMaster collection.
