I spent years converting my VHS collection, including home movies, stuff I taped from tv, etc. to DVD. No way I am going to go to another format like BluRay.
Yeah the day they all fell off the shelve 'cos I tripped and hit them was murder...so many fell out of their cases it took me about 3 hours just to check and put them back in the correct cases....lmao
ENGLISH AND DAMN PROUD OF IT British by birth....English by the grace of God. Yes Jamie...it is big isn't it....
looks like my brothers collection,except he has like 5 or 600 blu rays,since he works at movie stop he always gets them for close to nothing when people trade them in or sell them
we already have bluray and a few bluray dvds, hdmi cables costing as much as the player itself and a few films to go with it, takes a very long time to load but the pic and sound is kick *** on the kef surround sound system i must admit
my dvd collection do however look familiar in volume, i dont have it displayed like that though, mine are all in 2x 1,000 holding aluminium cases.
they didnt all come with original covers if you get me
Dude, go HD and Blu-Ray. You don't need to replace all that. I have a large DVD collection and am not replacing most of it. Those players do an excellent job of upconverting standard DVD's. The ones I'm replacing are films not anamorphic widescreen. Most in the last few years have been though and look pretty dang good. All new releases I'm buying BR, and they rock.

Yep. I have hundreds of DVDs, but most of the Blu-ray or HD DVDs I've bought are new releases from the past couple of years, or catalog titles that I never bought before, due to the regular DVD version being far from definitive or not being that great quality-wise (eg. ROAD WARRIOR DVD sucked, I refused to buy it, but the Blu-ray version looks fantastic). Out of the nearly 100 HD titles I've purchased so far, less than 10 are "double dips" where I already owned the regular DVD, but I will do that for films I love (eg. I bought THE THING and some Kubrick films on HD DVD, and bought DAWN OF THE DEAD, DAY OF THE DEAD, ENTER THE DRAGON, STARSHIP TROOPERS, ALMOST FAMOUS and TRAINSPOTTING on Blu-ray, even though I already had the DVD versions. These are in the minority though)
I have nearly as many dvds as you Rog but I buckled and kitted myself out with a great HD package including projector. Am I glad I did because the quality is unbelievable! If you want a demonstration you're welcome to come over and check it out.
