On Reddit we have r/dvdcollection, r/boutiquebluray, r/4kbluray, r/steelbook, r/vhs, etc but let's start simply with a community to cover all the forms of home video collecting.

So, do you feel nostalgic for a format? Are you looking forward to a release? Heard any exciting news? Want to show us your shelves? Then post away.

Why so the conversation centered around physical vs streaming???

But a cheap pc and use it to stream locally (plex, jellyfin, etc) and you’ll have no real data loss and it will look just as good without having to fuck around with discs and dvd/bluray/whatever drives.

Fuck streaming services, fuck physical media, learn to manage it yourself and you’ll never cry about scratched disks, dead lasers, whatever else you have with physical, along with the bad downscaling, bad pricing, roving licenses of streaming services
