Another pile.
Some of the boxes of DVDs in the garage.
More boxes of the Garbage in the garage.
All pictures were taken by my father.
Thank you for the directions on posting the pictures!

Austin, I'm glad I wasn't too harsh on you when you said you had 5000 or so. Nice collection man, I can't believe my eyes.

so, how do you organize them? by genre? Or do the cockaroaches and rats decide that for you? 
j/k
Seriously though, that's some collection. You must have a very wide taste in media.

Steebo,
I forgot to ask you earlier. I know we have the same equipment rack, but how much does your reciever weigh? I am worried about putting my Yamaha RX-V3300 on the glass shelves because it weighs about 50 pounds! Thanks.

How do you like the 600 series anyway dgc? I have the 604's up front, same center channel, the DS 6B's for the dipole sides and the same rear surrounds as you. I personally am in love with them. Then again I spent a good 4 months testing out a boatload of other brands before I decided on them too
And Austin54, that is one of the most amazing collections I have ever seen

Thank you guys. I am having a good laugh after the last topic.
They are organized by rough alphabetical. (Not what is in the boxes).
I have talked to managers at BB and HV and I owned more titles than they do, but not number of copies. Example I own one copy of a title rather than 40.
Yes they do collapse. I was working in the back (you didn't see pictures of the wing. Yes there are more) and I heard a noise. A wall of videos came down on me. It took me an hour to get out and I was covered up to my chest.
No I do not own a store, but I will be selling off parts of it. Many of the titles are op and will not be reissued on DVD. About 250 will be posted shortly.
As for quality - I have most of the mainstream stuff. It is the obscure material I am looking for now. I should have taken pictures of the CC collection.
I watch between 1 and 3 titles per day
I started collecting in 92. Most of the video stores closed since then and I have picked up the leftovers
Any more questions? I do not have time to enter them in DVD Profiler. When I started the Internet wasn't that big.

Austin -- case study of an obsession gone way out of control.
I have about 225 titles and I've been "collecting" for 5 years now. After I fill my latest DVD stand I'm going to throw a title away for each one purchased. Enough is enough!!!
