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.

Warner Bros. misses the days when we bought DVDs and Blu-Rays, and says streaming is just not the same (www.thepopverse.com)

I also miss the days where I bought physical media. These days, it's hard to find something new that interests me, is actually available for purchase, and/or isn't a super limited collectors set with steelbook etc that needlessly inflates the price. Good thing I have decades of physical media to, um... sit on a shelf unwatched, mostly. >_>

I buy physical media frequently, but the quality of it in the video sector has really dropped. Musicians are over here constantly stepping up their game, but hollywood has so over-consolidated and accomplished so much regulatory capture of their remaining competition that they just serve slop.

Great example is a recent It DVD that I bought, which was so perfunctory and so poorly made, it's hard to believe it even exists.
