When Did We All Go Steelbook Crazy?? - Blu-ray Forum

Everday without fail I always have to visit various sites such as Play and HMV to see if any new SB's are being released in the coming months - I think it's become a bit of an obsession - BUT I LOVE IT! Standard Amaray releases just don't do anything for me now, it has to be a SB release first. I already have well over 200 SB's and have another 32 pre-ordered before the year is out (and probably even more will come along soon DAMN YOU PLAY.COM!!). Personally I'm not interested in which ones will be valuable in years to come, or keeping them sealed, no offence to those collectors who do do this, that's just not me. I like to open mine and even modify some for my own collection. I collected DVD's from 1997 onwards but I was never interested or obsessed in buying SB's for DVD, so I wonder where this new obsession sprung from or why I feel so strongly about them. As time goes on I can actually see my Amaray collection shrinking as I continue replacing them with their SB counterparts and who knows one day you may only see SB's on my shelves! My hope is that more tv shows also start to appear in SB and that one day not too far in the distant future we will be able to own all 6 Star Wars Steelbooks! (Are you listening Play.com, after all you are now the number 1 retailer for Steelbooks - keep em coming!!!).
