Here is the deal with dvd/bluray:

If you really like a movie and might want to watch it more than once, you buy it.

Yeah, like, sometimes I'll go pop in my There Will Be Blood Blu-Ray and watch the final scene. Maybe I've got 20 minutes to kill and am in the mood to see it.

I only buy certain movies on blu-ray. Seems kinda silly to pay extra for the blu-ray version of The Hangover or whatever.

Blu-ray is almost always an improvement over the DVD version.

Planet Earth Blu Ray was probably the best purchase I ever made.

One of my big ones is watching the same movie more than once. DVD/Blueray ownership seems really weird to me.

Came late to this thread but very much on board with this. I used to love buying DVD's until I realized how rough ridin' stupid it was and how many times I actually went back and re-watched a movie. (which minus holiday movies it's pretty much nil unless it's on cable)

Also don't get people who have Blockbuster/Netflix memberships just so they can burn the DVD's and add them to their collection.

Big screens need big resolution. (and the color benefits)

+ lossless audio

Ever bought anything that costs more than $50?

Concert blu-rays are pretty cool. I've listened to most of mine quite a few times.

Not that fall in the extremes of the best/worst purchase spectrum.

NPR (not sure if normal people listen, but people always tell me about some crap they heard on NPR and its always insanely boring)

Apple Everything (don't see how its any better than the comparable option that's 1/3 the cost)

The Wire (never saw this show, but people are always talking about it like its awesome, would watch if I didn't have better stuff to do)

Agree completely with Blueray and Hiking

Cassidy did a bunch of "The Wire" tweets the other day. I guess he gets it . . . why can't I?

Watching concerts on TV.

Totally makes sense a bunch of Kansans don't like hiking. I wouldn't like it either if I still lived there.

Hiking is fine. Camping...not so much.
