How often do you watch discs you own? Do you watch them immediately after purchasing them?

I have around 85 Blu-rays and have watched 2 of them. I have all intentions of watching the rest, but with having Instant Netflix and a DVR constantly recording movies off of TCM, I feel less inclined to watch something I've already seen.
A small percentage of my collection are blind buys.

How do you justify what gets bought?

I try to buy just movies that I really enjoyed that I know I'd like on multiple viewings. I'll pick up a blind buy if I hear good things about it and I can find it cheap.

Post up your collections if you want.

I'm interpreting this post as a cry for help, so I'm going to tell you what you already know, but need to hear from someone else: This is stupid and a waste of money. Cut your losses and sell them all now.

When you look at your "collection", just pretend they are VHS tapes and feel the shame.

Nothing wrong with collecting DVDs. I have a lot myself. Most are ones that I have seen and enjoy multiple viewings. I've had a few blind buys and no big disappointments. Most of my collection is made up of drama, thrillers and sci-fi. A few comedies. A lot if TV shows too, but I never listed it all anywhere. Might be a good idea.

For me it's old school stuff I just want to have/own. Shit like Voltron, Army of Darkness and other titles I just want a very clean copy of. I by no means am going out and buying blue rays left and right, but if I'm at the register and Office Space is only $3 on blu ray, it just found a home.
