I rarely watch a movie twice. Very rarely. So to me there's no point in owning many. To me the exceptions are three:
-A movie I really like and KNOW I'll watch again
-A movie I've never seen and want to is on sale within a couple bucks of a rental price
-Kids movies for our daycare; kids will watch movies over and over again (sometimes back-to-back the same movie!!??)
That said we have probably 40-50 kids movies in that room, I maybe have 25 or so (?). Probably 3/4 of those are movies I like and the remainder were cheapies. And I doubt I've watched (m)any of the 15-20 movies more than twice. I've owned a DVD player since almost day one and currently have three, so it's not a lack of interest in using DVD's. I rent on average once/week (excluding movies my wife rents for the kids).
