Looks like my collection. I have 4 boxes of DVD's in addition to an overloaded shelf. You can't get rid of any cause as sure as you do, you will have a burning desire to what that specific movie within days.
Thank you. Now I don't feel so obsessed. since I only have about 160 DVDs myself. I tell you what though, being in Florida, I consider them "Hurricane Supplies" for when the cable goes out. If we lose power, I have a little gen that will power fans, PC, modem, TV, DVD, and a small fridge.
Someone's been leaving Best Buy 4 oz. heavier in their pants for several years now (ala 5 finger discount to anyone trying to decipher something dirty out of that).
For the record, they have this thing called, RENTING, look in to it
Now the kickers gonna be that you'll want to upgrade these titles to HD after you're forced to buy the HD TV.
If you actually want to slim down the collection, just start selling them on ebay. You could probably come up with interesting combo's or collections of same director films, or genre films etc. and sell several at a time.
