2 or 3, rising to around 20 in December.

Well, since I started with DVDs in June 2000 ....

1600 titles/56 months = 28.57 per month

After reading this thread I went and counted my DVD's. I have five bookcases full of opened and two bookcases full of unopened DVD's. That DVD I just "had to have" 10 months ago hasn't even been watched yet.

In the first four years I averaged 45 a month. Now I have cut back to about 1 or 2 a week. I hope I can cut back further, but that is going to take some major therapy.

I just did a quick inventory of the opened DVD's and I have approximately 1/2 of my collection that I have seen only once. I should have rented some of these for sure.

Dr. Phil....help!

I bought more in the early years (1998-2000), but still have an average around 8/month, but nowadays, I rarely buy more than 4/month, unless DDD has their 20% sale going on, then it's AWWNNNN, baby!

about 10 per month....some months alot more and some months alot less.....

I am averaging 27.11 dvds a month.

I would say 1, there just aren't that many movies that come out today that i want to own, and pretty much all of the older movies that i like are already available and in my collection except for 5 that aren't available yet, i'm not a blind buyer so that definately keeps my number down, i won't own a movie if i don't like it.

1-2 per month probably.

5.2244897959183673469387755102041 per month

2 for me and me for 2.

7 years of buying / approx 700 dvds = 100 per year, or 8.3 per month.
And that's counting TV box-sets as one dvd.

One of these days you and I are gonna crack heads going for the same DVD........................I look forward to it.

Honestly, you're the King - I dig your library and enjoy your posting style.

I buy mostly box sets and TV-on-DVD; and I usually spend about $30-$60 per month.

Total number of discs is: 308 (includes multi-disc special editions, TV-on-DVD sets of 4 to 6 discs, etc). Owed a DVD player since 2001. Months player owned: 46.
That's 6.69 discs a month since I got the player. Hum--more than I thought.

That's 78 films, and 76 TV series sets (set being defined as HOWEVER it was released--by season/series, as a "complete" collection, or by sets).

1-2 a month most likely. But that increases during the holiday season

I've averaged about 50 per year for six years, but due to replacements, boxed sets (which lead to varying totals), and discs I've sold off, I have yet to reach 300. I'd say, about, 3-4 a month?

A little over 14, but that is decieving as I have sold off hundreds. I would say if it was not for selling off, it would be more like 18-20 a month.

WOW, that number even amazes me. No wonder my backlof is triple digit.

My overall average is 13.35/Month (761/57 Months)

However, the last 2 years, It's over 20 a month. I had a light January, with only 18 purchases, but 4 of those were TV seasons. In December I picked up 30.

This month so far I've bought 4 (Or 7 if I count The Karate Kid Collection as separate titles). Two of those are TV seasons.

I think I have had a DVD player since 1999 or 2000, so for the...
5 year average = 5.86/mo.
4 year average = 7.33/mo.

Though I really didn't start truly collecting until 2 years ago...
2 year average = 14.66/mo.

Either ways, I think those averages are just crazy (only my opinion)!

You mean the inverse of course

Wouldn't really be an accurate measurement for me anyway. I have a large turnover of DVDs. I buy, I watch, I keep some and the rest exit the collection sharply.

But using your measure, I come out as 21.9 per month.

Including all DVDs ever purchased, I calculate it at around 47.2 per month.

Interesting thread! I average about 16 dvds a month since I got a dvd player in July 2000. But a lot of that comes from working at a retail store for a year that offered 50% off used dvds.

I got my first player in Dec. of 2000, but since I didn't start buying regularly until mid-2002, I'm only averaging 6.4 titles a month. Obviously that needs to be taken with a grain of salt, considering the influx of buying that took place in 2002.

i average 20 dvds a month

omg over 20 a month is insane... There should be a help group for you guys!!!

3-20

5-8 maybe?
