On Reddit we have r/dvdcollection, r/boutiquebluray, r/4kbluray, r/steelbook, r/vhs, etc but let's start simply with a community to cover all the forms of home video collecting.

So, do you feel nostalgic for a format? Are you looking forward to a release? Heard any exciting news? Want to show us your shelves? Then post away.

I've recently gotten into buying DVDs instead of streaming things, but the problem that I'm having is that the only DVD player I have is my old Xbox 360 which doesn't support Blu-ray and I don't know if there are better DVD readers nowadays. Just wondering if there was anything I should specifically look for or avoid when shopping for a new player.

My past couple of players have been Sony ones and if I ever needed another, I'd probably choose Sony again. They have a pretty good range of price points depending on what you need and I think they're typically multi-region too. Your main decisions with them are whether you want the 4k, HDR, WiFi and 4k upscaling features
