This thread got me aware that 2020 was the first time as I remember that I did not go to the cinema the whole year to watch a movie.
Cinema is where I would go for the new movie. I used to collect DVDs, but stopped and now I get the new movies on DVD from Netflix though they are a bit slow in releasing them. In the older days, you can buy a bootleg copy on the street if you don't mind the quality. I haven't seen these vendors for a long time. I also have Amazon Prime which often have new movies for streaming.
There are many good old classic available on YouTube for free. Many are also available for a fee. IMDb even have movie streaming for free. You can also join Mubi.com for more selection.
There are ways to get a movie if you want it bad enough and willing to pay for it. If I can't find it and wanted bad enough and that the DVD is available through online store, I'll buy it. The Warner Archive store has a great selection, and I have bought DVDs from them before. TCM store also has a good selection.
Of course, there is the regular TV station, but very limited. I have caught movies I haven't seen on TV now and then, especially on TCM channel.

Finally, someone may have uploaded a movie on the internet to share with others if you are desperate enough, have plenty of patience to search, and willing to take risk of damaging the computer or violating the law.
CORRECTION: I just remember I saw 1917 in the cinema in the 1st or 2nd week in January 2020. So, my streak is still alive.
