Collection Count

Collection Count tracks my DVD/Blu-ray collection via a number of statistics every week.

I mentioned last time that this week would be an average one, provided all my preorders for the 24th turned up early, and most of them did. That's six new titles this week, then, but two are upgrades, so it sits at four — and my weekly average for 2024* was 4.5, so there you go.

* calculated as the increase to "number of titles" in the year-end tallies, divided by 52.

Number of titles in collection: 3,490 [up 4]
Of which DVDs: 986 [down 1]
Of which Blu-rays: 2,503 [up 5]
— of which Ultra HD Blu-rays: 446 [up 3]

Number of discs in collection: 8,408 [up 9]
Number of films: 4,425 [up 5]
Number of additional cuts: 439 [no change]
Number of TV episodes: 9,883 [up 4]
Number of short films: 1,225 [no change]

It's also time once again for a monthly running time update...

Total running time of collection (approx.):
589 days, 5 hours, and 5 minutes.
(Up 1 day, 14 hours, and 18 minutes from last month.)

See you next week, faithful reader, which might be twice the size of this one...
