Re: DVDs, Materialism, & the Concept of Ownership

I'm at the point where I'd rather tolerate commercials than mess around with physical media. I had hundreds of DVDs and about 1,000 Blu-rays. Now I'm down to about 100 titles in total.

Re: DVDs, Materialism, & the Concept of Ownership

"Will they view DVDs as old space wasting technology?" Yes!...

Re: DVDs, Materialism, & the Concept of Ownership

It's funny to look back on this thread. I did end up collecting a sizable collection of BDs... before I ended up selling most of them. Most of what I own on BD is nostalgia stuff. Star Trek: The...

Re: DVDs, Materialism, & the Concept of Ownership

It is a business entity. I just did some quick research:



This means you MAY be able to continue viewing on a platform like VUDU if UV goes out of business. If VUDU goes out of business, you...

Re: DVDs, Materialism, & the Concept of Ownership

I can't believe this thread is 10 years old. It's fun to bump it every once in a while.

It's funny how streaming wasn't really a thing back then.

Re: DVDs, Materialism, & the Concept of Ownership

After a couple of years of inactivity, I decided to bump this thread to see if attitudes have changed regarding the topic. The technology certainly has.

Re: The biggest ripoff ever? Looney Tunes: Best of Bugs Bunny

Can you imagine a mom buying this for the kids and it's over before she's finished making them sandwiches? No one expects only 20 minutes of content. The runtime is printed in small black type on a...

Re: DVDs, Materialism, & the Concept of Ownership

When I first started this thread, I had hundreds of DVD and no children. Now that I have kids, my collector's mentality has evaporated. Shelves full of DVDs seem like a pain in the ass to me now....
