let me see:
I bought a gas stove/oven a few months ago. Took me a couple of weeks to notice that I can connect it to my wifi for some reason. I haven't, and don't intend to, but I am a little curious what features could possibly be in there.
it's probably something like remote control, which is handy but ultimately not worth it imo
Physical media generally has less aggressive DRM. Buy a DVD and the movies your's for life, you can even rip it and put it on a media server to make your own little streaming site.
"Buy" a movie/audiobook on Amazon and it's yours as long as the company wants you to keep it.
As always, there is an relevant xkcd: https://xkcd.com/488/
