Totally agreed. I didn't spend $10,000+ on my home entertainment system to watch a movie with meh streaming capabilities. Don't get me wrong, I stream movies too, I rent from iTunes sometimes, I watch Netflix for TV shows a ton, but when it comes to a real quality viewing experience, I turn to my library. I have about 4,000 total discs, DVD, Blu-ray, and 4K. They are in 4 x 1000 CD / DVD cases, big aluminum boxes, each labeled. Then I use Delicious Library for cataloguing so I can find everything very quickly. I can just search, "Jackie Chan" and it'll show me all 30 movies I own with Jackie Chan in them or whatever, or I can search "James Bond" and it'll show me those movies. Whatever I want, I can find it seconds. Then it spits out the cover, I click on it, and it says something like "Movies Case 1, #787" and I just open up that case and go to 787, there it is. Obviously with almost 4,000 discs I cannot keep the physical cases for everything. I toss them, unless it's something special like a SteelBook. The Star Wars movies stay out, they don't get subjected to cases, they are treated as something different so they remain easily accessible. I think it's only about 1,800 or 1,900 "products" because many things like TV shows use up 3-6 discs, or movies with a bonus disc use up 2. I've just started to build my 4K collection, it's very small, but I have about 10 movies now I think. PS: I never spend $30 on a Blu-ray. I don't even spend $20 most of the time. If you just add it to your Amazon wishlist, you can wait for it for about 6 months and eventually somewhere in there it'll get a lot lower. I got Lights Out for $6.99 on Black Friday weekend. I usually wait until a movie hits somewhere between $9.99 and $13.99 depending on how much I liked it. I'll buy a handful of movies brand new each year, like Civil War for instance, but that's about it. Maybe 3-4 brand new at most the day they come out. The rest of them I wait because there are great deals to be had. Edited December 30, 2016 by JonathanLB 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Movies that were scheduled for wide release this month initially *Rogue One *Manchester by the Sea La La Land Jackie Gold Lion Fences (saw it didn't like it) Any other drama that should've gone to at least 500 theaters (usually I get these BUT NOPE ON LA LA AND LION) december was supposed to be a month with surprisingly high quality. not this shit show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems so backwards to me. Over here, we've gone from having pretty low data caps (I remember the struggle of having 40GB data cap, then 80GB, then a couple of times with 150GB until finally we switched to unlimited) and now the norm is unlimited. My internet speed is shit because I live in a somewhat rural area but fiber has rolled out to a decent chunk of the country. Just USA things I guess.

AniNate Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 When my family moved out they took the Internet with them and I drank up the data limit on my old T-Mobile plan really quickly. Was a huge blessing that they introduced those unlimited plans a few weeks later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
