Not in my experience. My library's DVDs and Blu-rays work great. I check one out every week or two. I'd encourage anyone reading to go to your local library if you haven't been in a while. Check out a book. See if they have a makerspace. Do some remote work there. They're wonderful places. They become more and more important with every passing year. | ||

> Check out a book Not many of those left in my local libraries. They downsized to popular fiction and a rack of magazines to introduce more sofas and space for charity cake stalls. And "mindful colouring-in" if you're around for the 4.5 days of the week that they're open. Libraries threw away the one thing that made them unique, curated knowledge, in order to compete with Starbucks as a "third space". | ||
