When I'm around DVDs and CDs, they tend to wind up digitized.

And so there was one time when I was house-sitting / getting to use someone else's house while they were out of the country, and I saw a shelf of CDs and DVDs, so by the time I left, there was a flash drive and a note on what I did.

And, so far as I've heard, she got rid of much of it, because she had digital versions if she really needed them, of things that she probably mostly didn't want to keep anyway.

For me, my CD and DVD collection seems to be expanding, but it's mostly organ related (the music type, not the blood-filled type), or various things that would be hard to replace.

I'd probably still just buy a digital copy of things, but CDs and DVDs are nice ways around the rights problems, when needed.
