How many anime DVDs do you have?

Zero. I don't have a DVD player.

I did buy a nice LG DVD-ROM drive for my computer, but no matter what DVD software I tried, I couldn't get past the menu system on any DVD I tried. That drive is sitting on the shelf until the next time I do a major CPU and OS upgrade.

On the bright side, I found a place where I can buy regionless DVD players, so when I finish school and get the money coming in again, I'll pick one of those up and start building my anime collection.

Thanks, Melchior, but I've tried WinDVD already. I think the problem is with broken ASPI support under Win95 OSR2, which I'm using.

That's why I say I'll wait until my next upgrade. I'll probably beef up my Linux box enough to play video on, and I'll plop the DVD drive in that machine. Either that or I'll put a newer version of Winbloze on one of my machines. I'm not willing to upgrade the OS on the one machine I currently have that is beefy enough to play video on.

I must have 6 R (cowboy bebop series) = import dvds are so expensive here in France.
and about 15 R2 (growing). Otherwise most of what ive got is on tape or divx.

Hmm, time to get out my fingers and toes for this... let me see... 2. I have 2 dvds... Man I'm a cheap bastard... either that or I look at the $40 price tag that anime in canada costs, and decide I might as well download it. Though I'm going to break the cycle once Berserk and Golden boy come out... YEAH April 30th. Boo, less money for b33r.

Ahh yes...Berserk. Time to finally pony up the cash to replace my deteriorating VHS. *Sigh* My first fansubs...oh how I remember it like it was yesterday. The late nights spent with the other loser sophmores watching Gatts, Gatz, Gattsu, or Gats hold his giant sword in the most phallic ways possible. I've got the first figure they released set up in the classic "My sword is my penis" pose on my bookshelf. Ahh memories.
