I have not bought hard media in years (probably the last one was one of the box sets (Darkness or BTR). I am just too damned lazy to use it. Most of my listening/watching to music is background for me while I clean, bike, mow the lawn etc...
I am really looking forward to this release but will probably watch it once through (focused on it) then it will end up as background music with the rest.
For new albums, I used to buy the record/tape/cd and lay in my bed and listen to it while reading the lyrics from the liner notes just soaking it all in. I think the last time I did that was for The Rising release. Not sure why I don't do that anymore.
