Im torn. On one hand yes everything is available digitally. On the other I like having hard copies and not thinking about backing up 3 hard drives and random hard drive failure and managing an even larger library on a computer...its nice just to have the media exist. And what happens when our ability to own media disappears (which looks to be a very real possibility).

They do take up space. I may keep the ones I really like and get rid of others.

I easily have over 300. Along with dvds, but im keeping those.

Yup, get better copies first, and then see what's left over. Most will have much better versions available, and for the few that don't pick up a conversion kit, and bring them into the digital age.
