| | Posted: | | | | Well, this is an attempt to evaluate our addiction to dvd's. No matter if you 're watching a whole DVD or only an episode from a series. Just interested in a rough time frame.
To be honest I'm watching dvd's nearly every day. Mostly episodes from series like Star Trek, CSI etc. What about you out there? | | | | Thorsten |

| | Posted: | | | | I voted "several days a week". There may be weeks when I don't watch anything but usually I watch at least on the weekend several discs.
Every day proves to be impossible because I go to the cinema on tuesdays and poker on wednesdays. | | | Karsten

| | Posted: | | | | I voted several times a week, IMO there are not many TV shows that hold my interest. But I love movies. | | | DVD Profiler for iOS as of 3/5/2013

Of course I make up for that with 3-4 movies somedays. |

| | Posted: | | | | I go between a few DVD's a week to everyday depending on when certain TV series are released to DVD. For example, I watched the entire series of ST:Voyager, ST:DS-9, and ST:Enterprise in one long run (for each series, not for all three back-to-back).
However, I'm currently at several a week while I wait for BSG to be released in R1 (grr grr growl grr grr). |

| | Posted: | | | | I would love to vote once a day but sadly it would be a lie but I try to get in at least 3 or 4 a week (just finished 2 today  . I got Death Proof here and it is begging to be watched but I told a pal I would wait on his next visit before I pop it in. | | | | DVD Profiler user since October 1, 2004 |

| | Posted: | | | | Everyday if I'm at home, I don't bring my DVD with me on vacancy. I'm not that addicted  At my home, since I don't have cable TV and don't see the need for it, you have two choice : Watch DVD (TV serie or movie) or listen music. I'm more a music maniac (I love almost everything) than a movie maniac, but please don't beat me for this  |

| | Posted: | | | | My question will probably sound stupid for the people that I ask it, but for the user who collect and don't watch : Where is the fun in this? I can't understand that some people are collector since I have collect stamps and sport card in the past. It looks like a waste of good time if you just put them in a library and just watch the case. |

| | Posted: | | | | Several time a week; I working away at the moment (staying at a hotel with only the basic terrestrial channels) so I watch DVDs on my laptop. Usually I watch older TV since if I want to watch a big action movie I'll appreciate it more on my Home Cinema set-up at home... and since I often buy at a faster rate than I watch this staying away is actually helping me to catch up a bit I don't tend to watch so many at the weekends as I'm catching up on TV I've missed in the week recorded onto the Virgin V+ box and catching up generally with my wife, but if there's something we both want to watch on DVD then obviously we will... Apocalypto is up for consideration this weekend I think I'd love to have a few DVD marathons but this was a lot easier before I was married!  | | | | It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong |
