Even when I subbed to netflix, I still downloaded what I enjoyed.
I like having an offline copy of my media.
Online content always seems to provide sub-par quality, even on good connections. Don't need to worry about that with downloaded media.
Plus, if the internet goes down for whatever reason? External HDD > Laptop > HDMI > TV. Boom. Offline Netflix.
It's also nice for traveling and staying in hotels. Most hotel TVs have at least one accessible HDMI port, and that's all you need.
