I have boxes and boxes with hundreds (possibly >1,000) DVDs and Blu-Rays that I
still haven't unpacked despite moving house 18 months ago.
I probably won't unpack them until I want to watch something obscure that's not
on streaming.
What I am getting tired of is the huge number of streaming services with content
being pulled from an original service because a studio now has their own. I've
now cancelled all but two services and just rotate through them when I get bored
of the content. Disney+ was the one service I just cancelled despite being a su
bscriber since day 1 as it's doubled in price.
