Stranger Things 3
3x07 Chapter Seven: The Bite
So, after watching the first six episodes over five days, it's now been six whole weeks between my viewings of episodes six and seven. Oops. I really mistimed watching this season! If I'd started just a day or two earlier, it probably would've been fine (because I've been busy, hence not finding the time). Anyway, here I am now.

Collection Count

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

I was so busy with the massive raft of complicated additions & upgrades a fortnight ago that I forgot to mention one very important thing: the number of Blu-rays has now overtaken the number of DVDs! I wasn't sure that would ever happen -- when I started buying BD, I was intending to try to cut back. Obviously that didn't happen.

Anyway, back to this week: several all-new additions, and the monthly running time update.

Number of titles in collection: 2,264 [up 3]
Of which DVDs: 1,127 [no change]
Of which Blu-rays: 1,137 [up 3]
— of which Ultra HD Blu-rays: 36 [no change]

Number of discs in collection: 5,894 [up 5]
Number of films: 2,626 [up 3]
Number of TV episodes: 8,649 [no change]
Number of short films: 674 [no change]

Total running time of collection (approx.):
431 days and 59 minutes.
(Up 1 day, 1 hour, and 49 minutes from last month.)

See you next week, faithful reader.
