I still love blu and will be buying them, just not watching. Perhaps also it's mainly catalog titles and not "new" releases.

Yes. I get that. I have to keep my veiwing varied between DVDs, BDs, Shows I have recorded on DVD and regular television. Sometimes I need to step away from TV altogether ( ) and read a good book or some other activity to keep it fresh. I also have to watch myself from watching my favourite BD movies too many times.

LOL! I've watched the DVD (ok...no laughing) of Tombstone so many times the laser has burned a hole in the material. I'm like a teenager who can't stop playing the same CD track over-and-over again. hehe.

Dont worry Manco. Watching movies on DVD is no laughing matter. There is some up-scaling, but I can still barley force myself to watch DVD movies any more. It takes about 30 minutes for my BD eyes and brain to adjust. Spagetti Westerns - man with no name (except one time) and tombstone. Best westerns ever!

I'm really burned out at the titles. I feel like I'm seeing the same titles over and over again in each sale, and nothing much that I want. I want more new titles and catalogs to be released. I love watching what I buy, but don't buy if I know I won't watch it plenty of times.

i was burnt out on blu rays for a few weeks but my only other major hobbie was gaming and im just not into that anymore so im back to being blu ray junkie again.

I actually have more than 20 BDs that I still need to watch. But not because I'm burned out, but more because between my BD buying habit, my SACD/DVDA buying habit, updating and re-arranging my studio, my 100% job, my wife and 4 kids and making music there just isn't that much time left to listen to music and watching movies

The only problem I get is when I do have time, what to choose

Of my 39 titles, I've only watched 13, and 1/2 of Planet Earth. I've been extremely busy the past couple of weeks doing some side work, but I plan to watch a few this weekend and start catching up.

I having a hard time splitting my time between BD Movies and CoD:4 online AHHHHHHHHHHH!

[trashxx]

I get my BD's in batches: They are shipped to a mail forwarding agent in the US and then once a month or so I get them shipped to Denmark.

I still have 10 catalog titles from the last shipment I haven't watched and next week 55 new movies will arrive

All those BOGO's really are annoying

I have a very similar problem, I have such a huge backlog. Also once I start a television show, I have to finish it, otherwise I get confused. All the while still adding more things to watch
