DVDs are Obsolete
I finally decided to get rid of them, being most of my DVD collection. Built up over decades, they were just collecting dust on my shelves. My young grandkids love to pull them out and scatter them on the floor like big Uno cards. I cannot recall the last time I actually played one.
The Council Clean up was on, and they explained how to recycle them ( plastic cases in the Yellow recycle bin, DVDs left for the Egoods collection truck).
I kept, of course, privately made DVDs and CDs, which contain things that are non-commercial, family related video, weddings, graduations, etc. But I wonder what will become of these when I am gone.
Most movie related content is now available via streaming, and frankly it is easier to push a button or two on the remote, rather than digging out a DVD (even through I had them organised by genre).
And don't get me started on printed books, and my even older film sildes and negative collection.
