Most of the remastered pinoy classics probably won't come out on blu-ray, so DVD's will still have to be on the shopping list for the foreseeable future.

Yes, I still buy DVDs and Blu-Rays, and sometimes even still buy vhs tapes if I see them in a thrift store.

Yes definitely.

For movies I like that are not in BD yet.  My bro in NZ recently got me a dvd of A Bronx Tale.  It's on sale.  Wala dito.  And wala sa BD :(

For DVDs on sale at di naman kelangan BD ;D  Recently bought Margot at the Wedding, Straw Dogs on sale for P100 only.

Dahil sa dvd rot ayoko na bumili ng dvd. I still keep some of my dvd lalo na yung me mga special features na wala sa bd version. But since i experienced dvd rot gus2 ko na ibackup lahat yun sa hd.

I dont know if the humidity has something to do with the rot coz fortunately for me, i havent had a single rot in my collection. All are stored inside my HT wherein no sunlight goes in, year long room temperature? Imagine a room in a basement.

To answer the TS, i still do but only the blockbusters, most especially what my kids like..but no more hoarding this time. Wala na yung magnet na humihila sa akin tuwing dadaan ako sa video store.

Yeah I think humidity and average room temp.  My very first DVD that I bought in 1998 and the newest ones in 2006, wala ni isang rot.  Yung mga CDs ko bought from 1990-2006, wala ni isang rot.

Kaso I dont buy DVDs or CDs no more kasi a good friend introduced me to something in 2006.

I think I also met your friend. Good guy and very reliable...efficient and convincing pa! :D

Aside from the room temp, all my DVD and CD's are sealed with a plastic....dust free. I was able to buy that DVD plastic in Japan wherein i use a hair dryer to vacuum seal my DVD. As for the CD, i bought that imported thick resealable plastic cover years back for 25cents each. Guess the extra cost is all worth it after all.
