Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

Mostly overwhelmed. Only ashamed when I think about the price.

I started recycling the cases if it's just a standard one. I keep the discs in cd drawers. The art work is alphabetized and stored in a closet. Things with unique packaging or Criterion are kept wherever I can fit them.

And I'm finally giving away old discs that I definitely don't want or have on blu. There's still about 2400 individual releases that I'm keeping or haven't decided on.

Some of you with big collections may want to read Bill Hunt's latest column. MediaNews is looking for several BD and DVD collectors in a piece on large collections. Looking for big-time Steelbook and Criterion collectors as well. There's contact info provided.

Sent my info!

Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

Sent mine, but not sure if it qualifies. It's about 1500 titles, but it's all over the place.

Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

Thank you for posting that link!

Sent my info in! Collection currently is at 2,800+, mostly consisting of BD & DVD, with a sprinkle of VCD.

Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

I probably shaved 2,000 or so off my collection, but won’t take it out of DVD Profiler as a memorial...

Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

So did anyone here get in the article? I also don't think the guy with the 23,000 piece collection has the biggest media collection.

Damn... I meant to submit to that but forgot.

Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

By the time I emailed them they had enough people.

Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

That Dawn of the Dead set is still probably the best special edition I've ever owned. So many miles out of that thing. Even when I get the 4K I won't be able to give it up, even though I trade in everything once a superior release hits the market.

Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

Agreed, it's a great set. Had mine signed by George at SDCC, so it's not going anywhere when the 4K version releases.

Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

I also got Romero and Ken Foree to sign mine, so even if I upgrade it will stay in my collection.

Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

Pissed that I never got called
back for that Media Play story. Some of the ones who did make it said they sold off some items, and I bet none of them have a VHD player!

Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

Cinema Sickness has quite an impressive collection.

^^^ Whenever I feel bad about how much I own, I look at his videos. :lol:

Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

What my collection might look like if I had a house.

Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

No. I counted them a few weeks ago- 1,012 and still going.

Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

Ashamed, no.
Overwhelmed, yes. And I've probably got less than 2000 titles... but still. I just can't settle on a "good" way to display/store them all in such a small space.

Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

Be glad that they didn't call you. You think your "collection" is worthy of display?

Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

Remember the user pdjennings? Each "What are you buying on [insert release date]?" he would almost every new release. He probably had over 10k dvds.

Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

Don't you have a sweet home theatre space? No room in there?

Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

Whatever happened to him? That's what the world is missing right now.

Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

Nah, we sold that house when we had to move for my job. There's no room for that where I am now until/unless I can buy a place.

Re: Are you ever ashamed of or overwhelmed by your media collection?
 

and yet i keep buying more that i may never see in my lifetime. such a pity and really sad...
