Will Blurays and DVDs make a comeback.

I have over 1000.

When WW3 occurs, and there is a nuclear holocaust, what else can I watch in the safety of my nuclear bunker?

Or when the zombie apocalypse occurs, I need something to watch whilst in my bunker riding it out eating canned beans.

That’s my cheery logic anyway, and what I say everytime Mrs Cub tells me to get rid.

And @Krarl wont make it to the bunker, so he will either be ash or eating his own arm. So, he is welcome to call me an unwashed nonce then.
Unwashed nonce

How about I just call you it now?🤣

You forgot Alien invasion. Then you could be in your bunker watching '10 Cloverfield Lane'. Interestingly I just recently watched... on BluRay.

I am shockingly surprised at what I bought once 15 years ago for £10 and never watched again.

Even worse what I got in the 80's on VHS for £10 when I was working for £1.50 an hr in a supermarket.... then never watched again.

Get Die Hard on VHS ( maybe ex Video shop copy watched 100 times before retail release), Get Die Hard on VHS widescreen (like its meant to be seen) special edition, Then get Die Hard in box set with film cell special edition on DVD. Just realised I need it on BluRay!

p.s Its a Xmas movie.

I remember as a kid in the late 90s and early 00s going to virgin megastores and buying a load of VHS stuff, movies, loads of simpsons tapes etc every year with the birthday and xmas money, always about a tenner each.

I also vividly remember just a few years later, maybe around 2007, my dad taking a bin liner around the house and declaring the VHS era over and throwing them all in the bin 🤣

I've got a home cinema but don't own any blurays or DVD's, everything is ripped in 4k to a server, that way you have the best of both worlds, instant access, high quality! I wouldn't have the space to keep them all! nor could i be arsed trying to look them out and insert them!

Streaming services just don't have the quality that you get on physical media

Binned all my dvds a while back as i dont have a dvd player anymore. Kept the cd collection though as i have a badass old skool technics separate amp and cd player in the garage. Sound quality of cd is loads better than via bluetooth streaming on the aux off soundcloud etc, no shitty adverts too

You’re c**k on there. Sound from a CD is 100x better than a download and 10000x better than streaming.

It makes no odds if you’re listening on something s**t but on a decent system the depth and clarity of a CD is way beyond electricity versions.

I got my Series X with the 4K drive and just happened to walk past a CEX yesterday and picked up a copy of Tarzan to try it out on the 4K TV. Instant impression was mind blown from anything I've seen from streaming services. Anyway 30 minutes in film was fooked, skipping, freezing etc. w**k CEX s**t.

So I thought I quite like the idea of a 4K UHD collection but looking at the prices doesn't seem value for money and I don't want a billion DVD cases lieing around. Next plan was buying a NAS and using that to store and stream them. I'm guessing I would get the same quality?

So question is what would be the most economical way to gather a collection of the 4K films I want? And anyone got a link to show me how to do it?

I might be a bit out of touch, I think my last time was using Limewire to get some Ultra Nate single.

You may just need to look into torrents if you are after a vast amount of 4K “back ups” for your collection. Or there may be other methods nowadays.
