Collection Count

For those keeping count (ho ho), this is now the sixth week of Collection Count, which tracks my DVD/Blu-ray collection via a number of statistics.

The big acquisition this week is the latest Star Trek on Blu-ray, accompanied by bargain purchases of Ian McKellen's King Lear, Zodiac: Director's Cut and Dark City: Director's Cut to boost my BD numbers. But as I owned the last two of those on DVD -- Dark City twice, in fact -- their DVDs have now been discounted from the list (soon to be found on eBay), which does funny things to the DVD numbers. By which I mean that, though I've bought three new DVDs this week, the ultimate result is "down 2"!

Oh, it's a complicated malarkey, this DVD listing business.

Number of titles in collection: 1,087 [up 3]
Of which DVDs: 1,045 [down 2]
Of which Blu-rays: 42 [up 5]

Number of discs in collection: 2,669 [up 9]
Number of films in collection: 1,133 [up 8]
Number of TV episodes in collection: 3,716 [no change]

Statistic of the week:

Titles with audio commentary/ies or PIP tracks:
666
(61.3% of the collection)

See you next week, faithful reader.
