Collecting blu-rays (or DVDs) is no different than collecting anything else. All it takes is a strong enough interest and a certain personality type. It's not about the items, it's about the culture. Trading them, showing them off, finding them for a decent price, etc. It's mostly just a hobby.Those who buy Blu-rays; do you go back and re-watch them again? What is the point in collecting them? I did this way back in the days when VHS was around. Then DVD came and I upgrade it. Now w/ Blu-Ray - I haven't upgrade as it cost $ and I don't ever go back and re-watch movies so I sold off all my DVDs. Since having kids; I only buy Disney in Blu-Rays as the kids tends to re-watch them over and over.
Looking back... It was such a waste of $$$!!!
