Owning Physical Media

[(Anonymous)]

I've seen the matter brought up recently between gaming and Funimations recently closing down; but I was wondering if anyone collects any particular types of physical media?
Such as dvds/blu-rays/cds/etc or to just download from 'alternative' sources and either make your own copy or just keep the files as it is?

Re: Owning Physical Media

Audio cassette tapes. I don't even have anything to play them on, but I just love them and think the cases and inserts are better than DVDs and CDs.

Re: Owning Physical Media

[(Anonymous)]

I do collect dvds and have been considering getting a blu-ray player just so I can collect certain series that are only available on that particular format.
I also collect cds, but have kept mp3 files of radio plays or music on usb sticks or mp3 players too.

Re: Owning Physical Media

I buy whatever DvD's I can, because when I really love a movie or show I want to be able to watch it again on my terms, not the streaming sites, though getting a hold of TV shows has become increasingly harder in the last decade because of streaming services. For music I buy tracks I like on Amazon music and then keep the files on a USB so they're 'mine' in that sense. I have a few physical albums as well.

Re: Owning Physical Media

[(Anonymous)]

I have over 250 movies on DVD (plus a number of TV series and comedy and music specials).

Re: Owning Physical Media

[mulhollands]

Yep I still buy/collect physical media

Re: Owning Physical Media

[philstar22]

I still buy dvds/blu-rays of my favorite media. I love watching on my computer, don't get me wrong. But there is something about watching on a bigger screen sometimes.

Re: Owning Physical Media

I buy what DVDs I can, but they're getting harder and harder to find. If no one is going to make DVDs, then I'll do it myself.

Re: Owning Physical Media

[(Anonymous)]

I'd like to buy DVDs and Blu-Rays, but nothing I want to own is sold in my country and importing is way too fucking expensive.

Re: Owning Physical Media

[(Anonymous)]

I collect vinyl and CDs. I like the way both sound, but they both sound different, so I collect and listen to them both!

Also books. I buy paper books.

Both of these are only for my fav. artists/authors, though. I check everything out via ebook/streaming before I make any sort of decision about buying a hardcopy.

Re: Owning Physical Media

[(Anonymous)]

not as a collector but I've always preferred buying physical media when I can. I still have decades of CDs and cassettes, and I have converters to digitize my VHS and cassette tapes before they deteriorate. So if a game or movie is still on a disc, hell yeah I'll buy the disc. I won't let a company screw me by terminating a database.

Re: Owning Physical Media

[(Anonymous)]

Big on physical media, yeah. I mean I do have like a steam library and I've bought digital content before but any time I can get physical media I do, because yeah, okay, it'll degrade or it'll be harder to find a machine to play some formats on, but it's a thing that exists that no one can just decide to erase.

Re: Owning Physical Media

[sparklywalls]

I collect records (vinyl), Blu-ray, books and still own most of my old CDs and DVDs.

Re: Owning Physical Media

[herpymcderp]

Do burned CDs full of poor quality .mp3s from my teenhood count?

Re: Owning Physical Media

[(Anonymous)]

I actually added a few different DVDs to my public Amazon wishlist this past Christmas, which is how I became the proud owner of the complete Beavis and ButtHead series.

Re: Owning Physical Media

[(Anonymous)]

I collect CDs and DVDs/blu-rays. I love limited edition sets with extra shinies.

Re: Owning Physical Media

[(Anonymous)]

I buy DVDs of the things I really love, or I’ll pirate it and burn my own DVD of it isn’t commercially available.
I still have my CD collection and my tastes haven’t really changed, so most music that I want to listen to is available to me at any time.
I also still have the last wave of cassettes that I owned when I was kinda straddling CD and cassettes I was 27 before I owned a car with a CD player). I even have my old tape deck from when I was a teen because my parents kept it and dad returned it to me in mint condition a couple years ago LOL

Re: Owning Physical Media

[(Anonymous)]

I buy paper books but I don't always keep them and prefer donating them to libraries. Also we have small book crossing shelf in our apartment building.
I can't bring myself to toss out some of my DVDs and cassettes but I do not like buying them. I prefer downloading and keeping. Also if you torrent you share your files so it's cool.

Re: Owning Physical Media

[greghousesgf]

I have lots of DVDs, CDs and books.

Re: Owning Physical Media

[(Anonymous)]

If I like a movie I try to buy it on dvd or blu-ray. Sometimes I'll even buy things I haven't seen yet but that look interesting, especially if I can get them for cheap.

I stopped buying most new physical books years ago to avoid dying under a heap of collapsed bookshelves, but honestly I should start again.

My internet access is spotty and too slow for streaming and downloading, but also I "buy" ebooks and am always furious when a license expires and suddenly I lose access to a book I paid for. I really need to figure out if I can set up Calibre on my secondhand laptop, and then if it's possible to get the ebook files off my phone. Probably not.

What is the Last beverage you drank?

I just finished my peppermint tea \o/

Do You Take Part in Fandom Events?

[(Anonymous)]

Or have you ever taken part in a fandom event, like a challenge (inktober, Femslash february, a month of posting fics, etc...) or an exchange - anything along the lines of participating?

Re:Post #1 - Who is Your Cinnamon Roll?

[(Anonymous)]

For me, it's Bang Chan from the K-Pop Group Stray Kids. He's also my Special Interest. I will probably have a mental breakdown if something shitty about him comes out, lol.

What Are You Doing?

[(Anonymous)]

My bed sheets were in need of a wash so I washed them...only to find out my dryer is broken.

Currently have my bed sheets draped over the headboard and my pillowcases hanging at the end of the bed. Hoping my space heater will help speed up drying for my pillowcases and that the vent from my floor heater does the same for my bed sheets.

Also, began filing my taxes and I owe over a grand in federal, will get some back from state, but basically all of my state tax returns (and money from my own pocket) will go to paying my federal taxes =|

I'm also procrastinating on writing my WIPs.

What are you doing, FS?
