What percentage of your current DVD collection do you plan on rebuying on Blu-ray?

[workshed108]

I have been debating on rebuying all my DVDs on Blu-ray as they come out and not sure its worth it, especially when the Blu-ray is a slight upgrade if an upgrade at all.

Probably 20-25 %

Blu Ray is a huge jump in video and in most cases audio quality.

Not always...

Saw, Saw 2, Evil Dead 2, Bench Warmers, etc.

i only own about 10 dvd's...well 10 actualy movies. i also own many boxsets. anyways, im replacing those 10, most likely but i will still only buy boxsets as dvds.

after watching some WB BDs and seeing the grainy picture, i.e Superman, I dont think its really worth it to replace the DVD if they are putting any effort into the transfer

[DarchAmonNagar]

Only my favourites. Would love to get T2 On Blu-ray but going to wait till they bring out a better disc. Even with the better PQ I think its a step down to my Ultimate edition with its three versions of the movie and all the extras.

Also need the Alien movies on Blu-ray!! Give me, give me, give me!!!

My collection consists of The Matrix 10 DVD boxset, Gattaca and StarTrek Nemesis (the last two were got for peanuts). I have three or four others that were given as presents.
I intend to replace The Matrix boxset obviously, Gattaca and eventually get the Trek Movies.

So, large percentage wise but never really had a large collection in the first place.

This has been asked earlier. To be honest, my strategy has changed since I voted on the other poll. I started voting that I was replacing ALL my DVDs, but since I have gotten rid of most of my DVD collection, I'm now only buying those that I just have to have in hi-def.

I am only going to replace my favorites as well. Question though, what are you guys doing with the old SD DVD copies of the movies that you now own on blu? Are you still keeping them? selling them?

I will replace them all with great joy to do so.

Particularly favorites like Earth Girls Are Easy or Batman Returns.

If it was worth buying on DVD,.. it's worth buying on Blu Ray.

And I usually get a few dollars back for the DVD and the Blu Rays can be found on sale so,.. It's cheap to upgrade them. I think most of my 72 Blu Rays are titles I already had on DVD.

Nice thread. Like it.

I can't give you a percentage but I can tell which one's i'll definitely purchase again for Blu:

Star Wars I-VI (Must Have on Blu!!!)
Transformers (2007)
Batman Begins
Indiana Jones Trilogy
Lord Of The Rings Trilogy
Pixar Collection (Especially The Incredibles and Monsters Inc.)

Shaun Of The Dead &
Hot Fuzz (Come on Universal... Go Blu!!!!!!!)

There may be more but they don't spring to mind at the moment.

I would say nearly 100%, but I don't have that many DVDs in the first place. Basically, if there's a blu version available, I'll replace it.

Of course, I do have a number of Paramount/Universal DVDs, as well as some TV show collections and stuff like that, which probably won't see the light of day in blu for some time.

[mystiksuicide]

Great question, if that includes TV shows it will be a lot since I own complte seasons of X-Files, Buffy, Angel and all the seasons of LOST (one is one blu now).
Cris owns 24, Seinfeld, Rome, Hawaii Five-O, M*A*S*H and Mission Impossible (old school)

So between the TV shows and movies if we replace all the ones we really like id say about 50%.

We will either give away those seasons away as gifts or exchange them at BB once they come out on blu.

[Lee Christie]

Movies, 100% if they are ever available (come on get your back-catelogs released!), as for TV shows, i don't have many, only my favs, which I will rebuy if they became available and were worth it.

[TheForce8686]

i'll be replacing between 90 and 100% of my SDs. If it is in the 10 percent that isnt replaced it is because it really is a bad movie that I will probably never watch again.
