That's fair. Just I'm sure there's a lot of fans out there like me who want to have a physical copy of it in case it ever vanishes from podcast places.

Likewise I hope that once they've finished releasing all of Star Trek: Scouts on YouTube they'd put them onto a physical media release too so I can add it to my collection. Am I likely to ever watch it? Not to the extent I watch the rest of my collection but yes.

Maybe they'll release it commercially later on. A CD version, or digital download version? I think I'd buy it on CD.

I've never played a Zelda game, but if we're talking TV and movies, I've never seen any of The Godfather movies.

I watch Star Trek for the deeply cerebral storytelling...

If you like all the useless A-Z and On This Day posts I make, I've decided to make a separate account that will do all of that and keep this account for more general posts.

The account is called Geeky Facts and Stats.
