How many DVDs do you own (I suppose Blu-ray can be counted; just note that it's Blu-ray rather than DVD)? What's your personal favorite out of those you own?

I don't have a specific count right now, but I think it's from 200-250. My most treasured is probably the Blade Runner five disc edition in the briefcase packaging, but my favorite movie is M.

Well as the question states, I own about 300 of them... including videos, considering a DVD is anything that can hold 4.7 - 8.5GB of data (I heard some can hold 27GB)

I run Delicious Library
http://www.delicious-monster.com/

It gets cover artwork and lets me obsess and get anal retentive about my media.

According to my library, I own
243 different DVD titles (multi sets count as one) and UMD movies
193 Books
45 video games

I love organizing things!
