... when you dont have enough time to watch all the new dvds you bought and have to resort to sneaking out of bed when everyone's asleep, play your dts-es dvd without audio but only subtitle on and just imagine the 5.1ch sounds. haha! ;D  i know some else here who do this... [btw, it also took me awhile to realize that earphones have already been invented! -- wonder if there'll be 5.1ch headsets?]

If modern surgery discovers a breakthrough by implanting 5.1 ears on the head of a DVD addict, then there will be a demand for such...  ;D ;D ;D

Now that's a major DVD addiction!!!

.... when you clean your car and find DVDs you have bought sometime ago and is keeping it there para di mahalata ng kumander. You realized, "bumili pala ako nitong titles na ito!" Just realized I already bought "Around  the world in 80 days, So close and another two titles". Nawala talaga sa isip ko. :) :)

You know you've too many DVDs when...

Mostly from your collection was just collecting dust in your DVD racks!! ;D

Browsing from your collections and suddenly you said "Meron pala ko nito??" ???

Nauuna sa budget lists ang Titles ng DVD rather than groceries :D

Your wife suggested na magpaarkila ka na lng ng DVD ::)

Finally sumisimangot na c Kumander(Mrs.) kasi pag punta nyo sa mga malls AstroPlus agad hinahanap mo! 8)

it takes you a longer time choosing from your selections what DVD to watch than to actually watch the selected DVD.   :)

True. Sometimes,  I use the CABLE TV movie schedule to choose the title for me to watch.

Very true.  And someone opined the reason for this is that DVD titles you've already watched really give little or no re-watch impetus.  So you spend so much time mulling over which to watch.  Unless you have a specific reason to rewatch a specific title, nothing on the shelve is.   The only DVD title worth watching is a NEW one you haven't watched.   ;D  That's why you just have to buy new ones everytime.   ;D

You know you have way too many DVDs when...

One night, nothing good was on local TV. Cable channels are offering the same usual stuff. So I decided to watch a DVD instead. I pored over my collection (two tower racks that can hold 45 dvds each, 1 shelf for 30 dvds and storage cabinet for 90 dvds). After seeing all of them, I just decided to watch cable TV na lang.

Hehehe...  ;D  :D

There's a fine line between not having enough DVDs and having too much DVDs.

Call it an 'addiction', maybe?  ;D

My solution to this is to keep on upgrading or downgrading my HT setup.  But usually yung mga favorites lang ang mga pinapanood ko ulit.   Gaya nung nakabili ako ng projector then this time  Im watching my old titles again kasi nakabili ako ng pixel plus tv.  Next time, eh pag nagpalit naman ng speakers.

this always happen to me with purchased but unviewed region 3 dvds. because of the price kasi you are always tempted to shop.

with region 1, because of the price, i am more watchful.

You know you have too many DVDs when you fall asleep in the middle of choosing which title to watch.....
Next time you try to decide which title to watch....nagkakape ka na....ubos na ang kape wala ka pa rin napili...
next time you hire somebody to choose which title you will watch.....definitely not from pinoydvd....
