I have a Plex server running at home and really like having my own collection of music / movies that isn't tied to some 3rd party service. I can have higher quality content and don't have to worry about the third-party service eventually shutting down or changing their apps in a way I don't like, etc.

I'm just about done ripping all of our existing discs of music and movies. Does anyone know of any services out there where I can buy new movies / shows legally and download the standalone files that I can keep and view in any way I want? There are websites out there that let you purchase and download music in lossless format, but I haven't seen anything like this for movies.

Any leads, or am I stuck either buying Blu-ray disks (seems really wasteful) or "sailing the seas"?
