    I slowed down right after I hit a hundred. Now I'm pretty selective and try to avoid the blind dvd purchase.
    It usually ends up being crappy or something that was ok but I'll never want to watch it again. ie- "Traffic" :(

    I agree with begbie.

    I have now only buy the movies that I want in my collection and not just any movie. For a movie I just want to see once, I use netflix.

    F1 also has little tiny arms and large thighs like the T-Rex, because he cannot get into the 21st century. ;) PLEASE BUY A DVD PLAYER! I want to give you movies!

    I've probably got about 30.

    The HT rig gets used, oh, maybe once a week IF that these days. I've been spending every spare moment with my big **** parked in front of the CA's lately.

    The golden rule of DVD ownership: Rent first, and if it's worthy owning it (i.e. WILL watch it more than once in the future) then buy it! :)
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    <25 but growing....

    Even at that, as with VHS's that preceded the DVD's, I forget what I have or don't see any I want to watch, then a movie I own pops up on cable and I watch the stupid thing...
    More later,
