I moved almost all of my physical media videodiscs (DVD/Blu Ray) to the "cat room" in my other house

(at this point the videos are stacked on the shelf underneath the camera) and what I came to realize is that I'm never going to watch most of these movies ever again. Right now I am planning to move Bob B to a spray-resistant room in my main house which means moving my photography studio into the current "Cat Room" and I am not sure if I am moving most of my videos to the other house or if I'll just sell or donate most of them.

(Note I started out with books in the cat room but after the first spraying incident I took them out and moved in the rest of the videos but (1) I don't care if an old copy of Frozen gets sprayed on, and (2) I can clean the case or shuck it in a worst case scenario)

I don't know what the hell I just read but I wish I hadn't.
Gives you some sense of what weirdos still have physical media these days.
With regards to games - I wonder if stuff like Limited Run Games also qualify as "heritage physical media".

Ah yes collections. Good luck with that if you live in a studio or apartment.

Seriously IP holders of old movies should get on that Tubi thing I hear so much about so they can at least squeeze some money out of it.
