Collector argues buying unwatched DVDs changed his perspective
Original: Buying DVD and Blu-ray copies of movies I've never watched changed my perspective
A writer for Pocket-lint says building a physical media collection of films he has not actually watched altered how he thinks about owning movies. The piece reflects a wider debate about disc collecting versus streaming, as physical sales grow among enthusiasts who value permanence, special features and ownership of films that could disappear from streaming libraries at any time.
Why now: Physical media collecting is resurging as streaming services remove films, prompting discussion about the value of owning discs.
