DVD 100%
The others are Blu-Ray (   )

(40 % of my family never understood how to calculate in percentage, my brother says that this can't be true, because we aren't that many)
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

I've only just started collecting since last September so most of my purchases have been blu-rays.

about 70% DVD (over 1000)
about 30% BRD (over 300)

in the last year:
100% BRD

my online collection is exclusively Blu-Ray oriented: I cannot find the time to insert my very large collection of DVD's in it...

DVD 100%
Blu Ray 0%

but....

I've identified about 5 or 6 Blu Ray titles that I could be persuaded to buy.  Once that number gets to about a hundred, I'll pull the trigger.

If there's a choice I'll go for the Blu-ray, but if your interests are not just mainstream, all too often DVD is still the only option. As a result, I'm still buying both.

DVD = 94.8%
BD = 5.2%

Like deejay, I'm still acquiring both - though I'll take Blu if available.  But this is constrained by both availability of titles on Blu and by what titles come into my shop.

Last 12 months was %60 BD
Total inventory is %10 BD  - excluding pre-DVD formats

While I'd rather be exclusively BR purchasing (excepting poorly authored upscales), but that's not realistic and too limiting - won't stop me form acquiring a desired title on DVD.

Over all (~1000):
75 % DVD
19 % Blu Ray
6 % HD DVD

Last year (~100):
3 % DVD
97 % Blu Ray

DVD is only an alternative, if there is no Blu Ray available. I think I replaced around 5-7% DVD's with HD/Blu's.
