I have around 130 bought DVD's and at least another 1300 burned movies(from Netflix rentals), though It could really be a few hundred more. I lost count.
I keep them in those large DVD binders, I categorize each binder A-Z. I really need to number each binder and make spreadsheets of what is in them. Maybe one day I'll do it and post my collection.
I've recently slowed by burning though, as I rarely dig into the folders and watch something, at most, a few times a year. Seems like a waste of space and money, even though I pay about $20.00 for a hundred blank disc.
I used to have 50-60 VHS films, sold the them years ago in a yard sale. Only one I keep was The Little Mermaid, as it has the original cover art with the hidden dildo in the castle spires, might be worth something some day.

573. Box sets, double features, etc. are counted as one.

Plus they will not get rid of physical purchases completely, not fair on people who don't use computers. Would be an uproar.
Industries like this don't look after the minority that don't use computers. Look at the digital conversion television just made. If you don't have an HD-TV, satellite, or digital cable, you're screwed. Uproars didn't change anything. The industry will, without second thought, change drastically, ignoring the minority as long as its sure the majority will bite.
Plus, the industry is looking into cable-type boxes with hard drives with the sole purpose of downloading movies. So computer-use will make no difference.
VHS nobody wants to go back to because of the change in quality visually.
Records, if you have a good player, sound system and keep your records in good condition, sound excellent.
I've got a record player and still play records, I've got Black Sabbath records from the 70s that I got off relatives and they sound fantastic.
Then you have all the DJs around the world who play with records in clubs and so on.
