Letting others borrow your Blu-Rays.... - Blu-ray Forum

Obiwang_3zero3 · 01-20-2009, 07:59 PM

I feel bad when I say no to friends on letting them borrow my blu-rays... Do you think I'm being an ass? Lol...

jkwest · 01-20-2009, 08:03 PM

yes

Chocolatejas · 01-20-2009, 08:06 PM

I am anal so I say put it in the case unless it is in the PS3.

Teabaggins · 01-20-2009, 08:10 PM

depends.... are your friends irresponsible d-bags?

if so, then you are not being an ass.

bottom line: it's your property, don't feel bad about it.

If you are still unsure then have them verbally commit to replacing any damaged BD's and then you are set.

swingle007 · 01-20-2009, 08:09 PM

lol....i don't lend mine any more and don't feel like i'm an ass because of it...i've got friends i'm close with but they just don't take care of stuff like i do....nothing worse then lending blu's and ps3 games and getting them back scratched, broken, or with the cases dirty/cracked.

my friends can watch them at my place with me, but taking them back to their place is a no-no.

SHines-IT · 01-20-2009, 08:11 PM

I think this thread has been done...

But the only person I will allow to borrow my movies, is my brother.

ZackL · 01-20-2009, 08:12 PM

Nobody borrows mah bluz.

Uniquely · 01-20-2009, 08:24 PM

I'm the only person I know with a blu-ray player.

jadedeath · 01-20-2009, 08:27 PM

I don't lend mine out.

I've had too many bad experiences with DVD's.

People borrowing them and not getting them back to me, scratched disks, etc. etc. etc.

See I hear ya on this! I trip on the cases being scratch! Lol!

Crim122 · 01-20-2009, 09:06 PM

Thankfully my only friend with a PS3 is 2 hours away so I do not have the problem.

Same, none of my friends even have an HDTV, let alone know what Blu-ray is

Guess I got lucky

I wouldn't lend them out anyway, bad experience from lending DVDs even to my brother, I'd get them back just destroyed. Never. Again.

Anthony P · 01-21-2009, 02:36 AM

Hell no. No one borrows my blu-rays OR DVD's.

No, you are just being cautious. Fortunately for me, all my friends already have the same movies I do.

Obiwang_3zero3 · 01-20-2009, 10:05 PM

Yeah thanks for the feedback yalls. I just got a bunch of crap from my friend on how stingy I am and blah blah blah because I wouldn't let him borrow my planet earth. Then he asked to borrow my Ultimate Matrix Collection I said no... Then he asked to borrow my Resident Evil Trilogy and I said no... Then he was like let me borrow your Mummy Trilogy. He obviously didn't get the point and ended up getting really mad to the point he wanted to end the friendship because I was stingy! This is coming from a guy who does not own 1 blu-ray movie and rents his blu-rays from Blockbuster.com....

Sussudio · 01-20-2009, 10:12 PM

the one nice thing about having friends who haven't gone blu yet is the fact that they never ask to borrow any

My friends do, they don't even own a Blu Ray Player. Yet, when you explain it to them, they look at you clueless...

joegs300 · 01-20-2009, 10:23 PM

I used to let my brothers watch my blu-rays until they started tearing up all of my brand new blu-rays and leaving me with a bunch of opened discs that I have yet to watch. Now I lock my door.
