Perhaps it's because people actually like to physically handle the media they use. They want to have a tangible connection to the music and movies they've bought? Perhaps they're sick of knowing that they only rent the ability to play things when they subscribe to various streaming services.
But mostly, people like to collect things. How do you collect a Netflix library? How do you collect Kindle Unlimited books? How do you express who you are and what you enjoy if it's all housed on a device that feels increasingly hostile?
