My movies/show are in .mp4 and no problem, so long as the original is a
good print.

Same here.
I have stacks of DVD-RW's. A few DVD-R if something I want to really
save. That is often rare, unless some special film I want to watch again.
I use CD-RW's as well, and CD-R if I want a permanent record. I could
put a lot more .mp3's on a DVD, but if one fails they are all lost. (This if is
for my old time radio collection).

I use the Windows media player as a rule for .mp4's with Real Player
sometimes. I also use VLC from time to time if one others can't read the file.
RP is used mostly for old radio shows.

My problem is getting around to watching something I might rent.
I have movies I'll collect over the years and watch whenever I want or
have time, etc.
I prefer watching movies in order over the years. I'll start in say
1940, then 1941, 1942, etc. I might find a film from previous years later on
that are saved and it might a year or two before I get back to that time.
