Do you collect movies?

Yes. I've collected them all. VHS, DVD, and Blu ray.

I personally prefer a disc/physical copy over digital (at least as far as actual ownership goes).

I've also recently started collecting 4K Ultra HD, but have yet to upgrade to a 4K TV lol.

I use streaming too, but mainly for things I watch casually.

VCRs still exist. I have one, even. So, a VHS collection isn't actually useless with no way to play. I still have a few VHS tapes, not a lot but some, and I watch them sometimes. I still have the same Jurassic Park VHS I got in 1994, and it still works great, though there are picture issues in some spots. Just minor ones though.

I actually miss tapes, to be honest. I know they had their downsides, but so do disks. The slightest mark on a DVD, a fingerprint, a tiny scratch, and it's done for. A tape, you could drop on the floor and it would still work. Sure, they would wear out over time, but I feel that tapes were more resilient than DVDs.

I have a lot of DVDs. Maybe somewhere between 100 and 200, I don't know. I wouldn't say I consciously collect them, but I watch a lot of movies, and I buy ones I really like. I live in a rural area with bad internet service, so I can't really count on online streaming. I watch stuff online sometimes, but DVDs are more reliable for me.

Unless one is really rich.

Collecting is infinite. Where does it end with collecting? There are so many movies, dvds, and blue rays. Do you collect based on media or do you collect them based on one piece of media for one movie? The thing with collections is you have to have it all and for movies, it is tough!

No. I still have a few VHSs that would be impossible to get otherwise, but I'm not sure why I bother to keep them because the chances of me getting them either transferred to DVDs (another dying format) or in a more portable digital format are very slim.

I did have a reasonably large VHS collection at one time, have a number of films on my drive, and less than 10 DVDs.

Yep. My family collects a ton of movies. I believe we have a couple hundred DVDs/Blurays. And probably still have VHSs that got moved to the attic or basement.

I used to collect DVDs but they get scratched easily. So now I keep a digital collection.

I don't. There are so many movies I have never seen, my queue in Netflix is a mile long, so I just don't really watch the same movie over and over. I have less than 20 dvds, and even those I have not watched them that many times.
I used to have a lot of VHS tapes in the 80's and 90's but I got rid of those all a few years ago. I don't even have a player for them anymore so there was no reason to keep them.

Basically, any time I want to watch something, I am much more likely to choose something I have not seen yet, not something I've already seen.
