I use to have a few hundred DVDs but I just didn't watch them so I sold most of them......

CDs are a bit different as these will all be burnt to the computer and the actual discs will be stored away.

Re: how big is your dvd,hd-dvd and blu-ray collections

Surely it is more about the quality of the movies you have over the amount?Hmm


I suppose I have around 1500 DVDs from all around the world and say 30 or so BDs as most of the stuff I have/want is very doubtfull to ever see the light of day in HD especially seeing as there are still loads of movies I have on VHS that are still to surface on DVD.

I've got a grand total of 13 DVD's(!) Most of them are TV series.

For some reason I'm just not really into films.

I have about that many. Peppa Pig etc. Although I have just bought a few Attenborough box sets to replace some I lost in a fire.

Re: how big is your dvd,hd-dvd and blu-ray collections

I have a few hundred, quite a few limited edition one's from USA and Asia etc, with some titles on Criterion Collection. But I can't say that I watch most, or even a fracture of them. I rent more now, so If i really lie the film I will buy it. I have about 12 blurays, 5 of them were free!!!

I have many titles from Criterion including the rareist of the all in their edition of Sal'o which was pulled almost imeadiatly after going on sale due to issues over the rights of the movie.


 Other fav Criterion discs are Silence of the Lambs (PQ is average but superb comentary only ever on this disc) Flesh for Frankenstein, Blood for Dracula and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

Re: how big is your dvd,hd-dvd and blu-ray collections

I've about 2200 DVD's in my collection with another 10 to arrive tomorrow hopefully (Watchmen, Rick Stein, Underworld Trilogy, Animal House (John Belushi classic) and some Ray Mears DVD's)

Also got 300+ CD's but I'm going to go through them all (inc DVD's)next week and have a solid clear out.

TBH I'm sick of the romm they take up and believe it or not; a lot of the DVD's are boxed up in the loft!

Re: how big is your dvd,hd-dvd and blu-ray collections

Ive got about 700-800 dvds and about 30 blu-rays, to be honest i still find blu-rays too expensive and tend to pick dvds up from car bootsales for less than a pound. The only trouble is you end up buying more than you can watch, i look to buy anything apart from chick flicks. I prefer Sci-fi and recently more horror, but the problem is most of the stuff im after is region 1, or only available on Vhs which is annoying. Just discovered Full Moon classics mostly horror a few sci-fi like classics vol 1,2, very unlikely to ever see blu-ray, and some titles hard to get and fetching stupid money, Jackie Chan films i love and recently realised i had over 70 films and there's still more i haven't seen. Any one else into sci-fi and horror would like to know what your collecting.
