>>85205055

Why

Also I don't have many DVDs, I sold a lot of them years ago, most of my collection is Jackass, CKY, Oz and some Disney movies and shitty direct-to-DVD kids movies from when I was a kid that my mother keeps for my nephew.

Too big, and I just broke my fucking TV so now I don't know why I've wasted so much time and money on this shit. Help me /tv/. What stays and what goes?

Too big. I just moved house and filled up several boxes with DVDs. I don't realise how much useless crap I have so I'm taking them all to goodwill and becoming a pirate.

12 kinos

I bought a few dvd 200 films collections last year at a bargain price. 600 movies (maybe 575 since some have a duplicate in the other collections).

I love old b-movies.

I have piratebay bookmarked on my browser, does that count?

Haven't bought any physical release in perhaps a decade, but there are definitely a few on the available in the arrowvideo sale that have me getting the itch.

This is the only physical media I own.

I have a ton of vhs tapes. Many don't have a dvd transfer yet (they might never get one beside a shitty rip by some random guy).

I tried to tranfer them myself, but the quality became so piss poor that I'd rather watch them on a my old vcr.

Which ones in particular? Stuff like Spy or Walter Mitty were bought on a whim to watch once and then to be sold back. I buy all my stuff second-hand which reduces the cost down to a couple a bucks a movie. But that's also why I'm asking what do I get rid of?

>>85205172

Use a tablet, your pc's screen, etc. instead of your old tv until you buy a new one.

In fact, an old monitor would do a better job than most tv.

On my 18th birthday my grandpa gave me a porn DVD called Ass Worship (I told him I thought butts > boobs like a year before). As I unwrapped it he said to me "you're a man now, its time to watch a man's movie". Anyway he's dead now and I'm a kissless virgin at 26. But hey at least I've got something to help me cry on command, most actors can't even do that.

I have an external HDD where I have my whole collection on it.

>>85209570
I hope you have a copy. I lost mine after it physically broke for no reason. No way to retrieve the data (at least no cost effective way), it was that damaged. I got a new one for free because it was a flaw in fabrication, but I lost everything I had on it.

You can't trust streaming services because they keep dropping stuff. I think it is better to get physical media CD DVD Bluray and then sell it on when you are finished and don't want to keep it.

Those I keep I put into the zip up storage cases that you can put 160 into a case the size of an old hardback encyclopedia.

I have some backups on hdd but I always have backups in at least 2 hdd in case one dies. I am looking into bluray discs for extra backup because other anons think they are a good idea.

This is why I pick physical media at the end of the day anon. Because services like Netflix routinely get rid of good content and you aren't guaranteed to still be able to watch a lot of your stuff. I'm sick of people acting like streaming is the be all, end all of consumerism with movies and shows.

Also, the quality isn't as good compared to blu ray or even a lot of dvd's of course. Especially in the sound department. When I want to watch a great work of cinema or even an enjoyable horror flick or something, I want it in the best version possible.

Plus, all those delicious special features, commentaries and cases/covers/booklets. It's not just watching a movie, it's an experience and I'm sick of people not taking that into account or acknowledging how awful the loss of these things are if we stick to a digital future.

>>85205055
I own about 2000 DVDs. Haven't bought any new ones in about ten years though. They're just not even worth selling for the most part, though I have sold a few of the more valuable ones. I got £350 for an Ingmar Bergman collection I had a couple of years ago.

>>85211492

>>85210711
Also about streaming; it's renting.

Whether it's movies, tv, games, software, etc. it all seems to be going digital only with a monthly fee

Companies no longer like the idea of someone only paying a one time lump sum for their product (physical media), so they do this to milk you for as much as they can, which is also why many games aren't 100% complete on release anymore, you gotta buy it in instalments.

And not only can Netflix remove titles at will, they can also edit content, take out what is deemed "offensive", they can't do that to your Blurays.

>>85211821
Yeah, I don't trust those vermin with my money.

I’m down to 20-30 movies and disc based games. I have a few n64 games and my snes collection. All fits into one bookbag.

Everything else is digital and mostly pirated. When i got banned on xbox back on the 360 days i realized you dont own your digital content and you can lose it all without warning, so why bother giving these companies my money? Most games ive bought have an online component or an mmo and i buy em from cd sites.

About 1000 blurays at the moment.

Set up a 40TB Server, and am slowly ripping them all to it to run via Plex.

I am going to buy me some more DVD wallets. I could buy them online but I am going to buy them the next time I go to the mall. The stores prices are similar when you remember the postage cost online and we need to support real life stores over the online monopolies.

I've probably got about half a billion cd's and dvd's in various envelopes tucked away in my cabinet. I've purchased a few in more recent years, mostly obscure shit that I couldn't get decent quality versions of through other channels.

Never got around to buying a blu-ray player, because by the time that became available it was already obvious physical media was a dead man walking.

In about 10 years once physical copies of movies are a thing of the past and everything is done online or OnDemand, and Hollywood no longer lets you buy your own copy of the movie and instead only lets you rent them for a 24 hour period for $14.99, people are really going to regret being too cheap, and lazy to keep physical media around

Internet Blu-ray rips suck. They have lower fps and bad audio. It's fine if you don't notice those things or if it's a movie you don't care about.

Your grandpa sounds like a degerate nigger.

I never had sex till I was 28 and married. Quit bitching, we are all going to make it, just make some basic life style changes.

As a general rule I do not spend more than $10 on any blu-ray. I cannot seem to find much in the way of japanese/korean movies on blu-ray and criterion stuff is expensive

Why does Nicloas Winding Refn present Dawn of the dead? What does he have to do with it?

>>85219792

I believe he sponsored the 4K restoration alongside Dario Argento, plus it's a good way for him to get his name out in Italy, I guess.

The first release had DNR and compression issues which made some colors feel unnatural plus it had some soft textures, but Midnight Factory is now sending replacement discs for everyone who bought it.

It's girthy.

What about the last 3 generations of standardized physical video media lends you people to believe any of this is a worthwhile investment?

Tacky shelf ornaments, soon to be had 5-for-$10 in your local bargain bin.

L'Avventura is classic Antonioni. Very slow, but very very good. I haven't seen the other film yet. It's on my list.

>>85205055

It's not too large right now. I'm only owning serious horror classics. I refuse to buy anything that isn't a classic.

>>85231331
nice, you have a great collection man, keep it going

Only some VHS from when I was a kid.

Why wouldn't you? Criterion, Arrow, Scream Factory, etc make it worthwhile.

wtf would you even play it on? do they come on USB 3 thumbdrives now or something? I haven't had a PC in 15 years that had anything more than a storage drive, esata, and usb. This area completely skipped blurays. We went from dvd to USB only.
