Thread: Do You Buy DVDs Of Movies You Liked Or Download "Backups"?

I was just wondering if anyone buys DVDs of movies they really enjoyed and thought were deserved their money, or do you simply acquire a "backup" of it :laugh:

Any movie that really impresses and makes me count down the days 'till its DVD release, I will buy, even when it's easily available for download. Close to 85% of the DVDs I own are all originals, the rest are backups of someone else's originals :laugh:

So do you buy the movies you like or do you not?

I will generally buy an older movie if I'm walking through a store and I see it as a good deal or its an entire set of movies for a really good price. As far as new stuff is concerned, DVDs are in most cases online well before they are in stores so...

i dl then burn.. cheaper by the dozen lol :P

Blockbuster first,
then backup.

before i was renting dvds and than burning it, collected over 500 dvds that way, now i'm all in hd and most of movies have over 4.7 gb so i can't really back up em, so when my hard is full i just erase :( would like to have some big hard like 2*1tb lol

I don't see the point in buying movies anymore since I'm only gonna watch them once. I either download them, or wait until it comes on cable,lol.

nah u can allways buy movies u like to have, good movies i watch few times. i watched braveheart 14 times, and shaowshank redemption like 7 times

Thats true..I can watch Cruel Intentions 10 times and not get bored of it,lol.

Braveheart is one of my fav movies too. I am annoyed by the 4.7GB DVD size too, thought they do make 8-10 GB DVD with ridiculous price, and I would have a tough time planning what to put into those huge DVD. 5.5G will be a perfect size.
