Why You Should Start A Film Collection:
This week's video essay examines the popularity of streaming, the shrinking market for physical media, and of course, why you should start collecting films! This video is different from my usual format, with all of the footage taken of my own film collection (this gave me a good opportunity to show off some of my favourite blu-ray collections!), and as a film collector it felt necessary to discuss why physical media remains important.
