I have around 1000 literally and it is TOO much. Soon, I will watch and obtain my favorite movies online if they're not available on Amazon Prime or NetFlix etc, even if they are among my all time favorite movies, not to mention some of them are barely available.
I have been buying DVDs for nearly 20 years and feel I've had enough. Is that alright?
Cheers. And from April or so no DVD buying from me.
streaming is now

Yep. Sounds like a plan to me.
😎
It is pointless, I havnt bought a DVD for a few years now.
shareAlso, in your opinion, is it worth going out of your way to buy expensive say DVDs if they are the only version that are UNCUT, or can I stick with edited censorship-oriented versions in that case?
And what if such or some films are unavailable on YouTube, NetFlix, Amazon Prime or anywhere online but are available to buy on DVD, can I just leave it at that?
I wouldn't go out of my way to buy a DVD these days, im happy with with watching on Netflix or Amazon, or if you can't find a film hd cinema has everything within reason- so a friend told me😉, then watching extras on YouTube etc and reading extra info on here and imdb reviews.
sharecan i shoot you some titles & possibly haggle for them
shareYeah shoot away, I gave all my dvds away apart from my 3 favourite box sets if you name them we can haggle.
I assume you ment

shareTv
shareIf i get any right you promise to send the boxSet to theMan18 ?
shareYeah i will if you guess wrong what do I get
shareoh, were gambling now... thought the joke would end with that Last comment. What do you want ?
shareJust kidding, guess away lol
shareyou shoulda asked for something, its no fun when you got nothing on the Line & theman has too many Dvds already
shareThat sounds like a very low place to be in. I recommend purchasing some movies in VHS format to get you back in the swing of things.
shareNO!...BAD THEMAN18...BAD!
BUT IF YOURE GONNA BE BAD..YOU MIGHT AS WELL BE REAL BAD AND GIVE ME YOUR MEDIA.
Well, after 20 years, it can only go so far. Too much money spendings and fewer places at home.
shareIM CURRENTLY AROUND 25 YEARS INTO THIS COLLECTION AND NEARING 30,000 TITLES.🙂
shareYou must have a REALLY big house then.
shareNO...NOT REALLY...THREE BEDRROM,TWO BATH...UNTIL A FEW YEARS AGO I HAD THE WHOLE THING LINING THE WALLS OF THE WIFE AND I'S BEDROOM...ITS CURRENTLY IN BOXES...LUCKILY I HAVE A DUTCH STYLE BARN(3 CAR)...CURRENTLY CONVERTING THE ATTIC INTO A CINEMA LIBRARY.
shareI like having the film in a tangible form. And streaming can always be cut off. At the very least, I want hard copies of my favorites on hand.
Me too but there is always a limit.
Also, I wanted to make a separate thread on Censorship, but I also wanted to add that a lot of movies I own, although some of which have full uncut versions that are almost IMPOSSIBLE to find, and really expensive if they could, are censored in some or other ways. For the most part, however, can I live with having films that are censored by say over or under 5 minutes to remove certain scenes of sex and/or violence?
In some cases, its actually not that big a deal. But then in others. It depends...
Seeing as I've got ever-growing shelves of DVDs, I understand your point. :)
shareIn all my 18+ years of movie buying and collecting, with minor exceptions when I went to stores etc, I only really ever sold ONE DVD online. And very few I gave to rental stores here and there. Which only amounts to AT MOST 5%, and 95% was me buying stuff.
