Just intrested to know, how many DVD's do you own?

Edit: Since everyone seem to be using "uncheating" ways of counting their DVD's, i'll change the question to DVD's. e.g.:
2 movie boxset = 2
6DVD TV Serie = 1

You can change your vote, by pressing the... well, 'Change my vote' -button.

Hmmm, now you have me confused...

Movies, profiles, DVDs...? What should my vote be?

Profiles, DVD's and Movies would be too hard to count.

I went with titles purchased.... because that is how I number them in profiler. If I went with how many profiles I have the number would be much higher as I have child profiles for many of my movie and TV Series sets. Figuring a 2 movie boxset would be 3 profiles counting the parent profile as well as the profile for each movie.

Exactly the same here! The only difference is, that I normally do not create child profiles for TV Series on disc level. I use dividers instead. But this is purely a matter of taste.

I own 577 movies, 215 TV series boxes and 10 special interest DVDs.

So I went with 802 titles, although I have 1070 profiles.

So put 918 as that's what's showing.

Ok thought that nobody counted the "real" size of their collection. But since everyone seem to, so added a more detailed slightly diffrent question. You can change your vote.

There is a web site that lists the size of peoples collections. But obviously you have to update your stats when they change.

See the DVD Collections site.

my total was my highest collection number. Which is over 500 lower than dvdprofiler says I have. I only count the boxset, not the contents.

i count each tv season (UK: series) as 1; each movie, whether standalone or in a set as 1; and don't count parent boxes for movie collections, so mine comes in at 1276.

of course, i just ordered spooks 5 and wire in the blood 4 from amazonUK...so add 2.

and yes, we love our little polls...

that's poles, i mean polls...

goodness, and on a sunday morn...

TV Series are counted as one.
Box sets are not numbered but each movie is.
