I have 261. Just got 3 more today.

What do you consider an average person? I think if your a collector, you probably pick up a couple a week. Maybe if your an average movie going person, you might pick up a couple a month. Not sure.

I have about 450 titles, and 20 of them was bought today. 8)

Blockbuster tried to make it big here in Norway but tomorrow they are closing both stores that they got up. :lol:

They sold almost all their DVDs for $4 and had it not been for me coming to late I would have bought a lot more.

On the bright side, Tangela, by the looks of his avatar it seems like the plastic surgery he had to hide from the mafia has worked like a champ. No one would guess he's really 83! :lol:

Quite scary, really.
Well, I went back and counted. Counting box sets as "one", I have rougly 450 DVDs. And that is a conservative count. 28 more on order (and some of them are box sets too).

Is there professional help available?

I have 113 titles (if you count boxed sets like Ultimate Toybox and Indiana Jones as one title each). That seems to be next to nothing compared with some of you. :shock:

I got 64 in total, if a season set of a TV show counts for 1 entry. I only have 6 animated classics, but heh I'm a newbie to Disney. I think that count is pretty good, for a 14 year-old without a job. :D (Not that it's a competition :P )

Quite a bit over 200 DVDs, but only 20-25 Disney DVDs since I also have a hundred Disney laserdiscs.

I have a bookshelf divider between my living room and dining room. That 3 shelf bookcase holds my DVDs and videos. My video collection has shrunk from 1,000+ to 173. I replaced many with DVD and just decided I was no longer interested in many of the videos. The unwanted videos did go to a good home.

Wow, yet another example of something I was coming in to post, and someone else had the same idea and beat me to it (only I was going to make a poll). Freaky!

Anyways, I'm pretty close to having 200 (not exactly sure how many), but I do know that 33 of them are Disney (unless you now include the Muppets, which would make it 35).

I'm now unveiling my DVD collection online, which is mostly complete, though there are some that aren't in their database. Here it is:

P.S. I think we're going to have to make a new topic for this every several months, as collections are always building exponentially.

I've got about fifty DVDs. It's not much compared to everybody else but funds are tight. I'm not working right now and I'm a college student. I'm pretty much broke all the darn time. I'm also running out of room for my DVDs. At the rate I buy them, I'll be running out of room real soon. I need me one of those DVD towers.
