Default Would you upgrade your entire collection to 4K UHD?

As it says in the question, would you upgrade your entire collection to 4K UHD (assuming all titles are released on that format)?

It’s not been so long since I’ve started upgrading a lot of titles from my DVD collection to Blu Ray (after swearing for a long time that I wouldn’t), and now with 4K UHD, I’m starting to worry I’ll have to it all over again...

Yep. That's what I've been doing slowly.

It would be costly due to the size of my collection but yes, I would upgrade it to 4K UHD.

No. It's unnecessary. I don't wish to upgrade even some of my DVDs to Blu-ray.

If I could, I would, sure. Some movies may not benefit, but I'd rather have a few lower-quality movies on a high-capacity format than every movie on a lower-capacity format.

I'm pretty sure it won't be possible to upgrade every single movie--I'll take what I can get though.

No. Not everything benefits and some things just don't warrant it. I've upgraded some as a means of futureproofing that seem like they're very well done transfers, but I don't even have a 4K TV yet.

No I wouldn't. I'd rather have them all digital to be honest.

Nope. No interest in UHD. I only started collecting Blu-ray more seriously just a few years ago.

The chances of getting all the films you like on UHD are going to be limited. So hard to answer. If every film I ever wanted was, then yes.

No, see no need in that. 4k is an improvement but not enough to start over.

No there are a lot of titles in my collection that I am happy to have just in 1080p.

No. When I had a physical collection I didn’t rewatch many; how could I?

Just the top three or four movies I love will do for me.

Hell no. I'm perfectly satisfied with blu-rays & the picture quality they provide. The vast majority of my all-time favorite movies are on this format and already in my collection.

If they're cheap enough, maybe some of them but not all of them.

No, there's a period of filmmaking where movies were shot digitally at resolutions around 1080p/1080i, they don't benefit from 4K. Same goes fro movies shot on VHS.
