At home I have 2 boxes full of DVD-R Verbatims with TV series and Cartoons downloaded at the beginning of the 2000s. I’m talking about about 800 DVD-R 4.7GB. I would be willing to throw away all the DVDs because my old computer no longer has a working DVD player, so I wouldn’t know how to read the contents. But I have 5-6 sheets of paper on which I have written what each DVD contains. My doubt is: Don’t I waste time and re-download everything in 720p or 1080p format and buy like 4TB HDD or do I get an internal DVD player from the computer and copy all the old DVDs just so as not to waste the time lost at the beginning of the 2000s? Thanks all!

    Same. I had 90’s Fox x-men in my collection. I had gotten back in maybe like 2003 at a LanParty.

    Shit was super rare at the time cause it was never released to DVD/Streaming services. It was essentially just VCR recordings from on-air tv.

    Fast forward to modern day I was like I wanna watch that and when I started playing it I was like…bleh. Opened my torrent client and got a updated version.
