Hi
Just a curious post - I was sorting out my collection and reorganising my home theatre after repairs from the Brisbane storms. I was a supporter of HD DVD and have since gone Blu as well.
With regards to your own libraries, do you place your Reds and Blus seperately? or mix them up? In other words, to you display your HD DVD Mummy & Mummy Returns with your Blu-Ray Tomb of The Dragon Emperor? Do you place your HD DVD Hulk alongside your Blu-Ray Incredible Hulk? Or your Blu-Ray Rambo alongside your HD DVD First Blood trilogy?
I have kept mine seperated (segregated?) Just curious what others do?

Are you worried they will breed?
I did have red and blue seperate, but as I now prefer to look at the title and decide what I watch rather than is it red or is it blue I wondered why I would do that so have now mixed them alphabetically. I guess having some series now on red/blue that meant the series of movies could sit next to each other too.

I tend to be a bit more informal.... I have all sci fi together, all foreign films together, action, war.... etc... so I can quickly go to a section and look for what I might want to watch.... I have about 200 discs and growing.... with a bigger collection I might start to alphabetise.... but I know what I have in general.... and most discs warm the bench more than they spend time being spun....

Do you have small little drawers with a card for each disc too so you can pull the card and give it to the librarian to find the disc for you?

ROFL a workmate uses AMLIB library management system to keep track of all of his DVD's/games etc.. even has a full circulation module with loans/due back dates etc and a borrower module to keep track of borrowers details hahaa.. defo would help against Borrowitus where your titles slowly disappear!

...and blame the previous formats for it's own shortcomings
We could always get Michael Bay to promote it!

Go DOCKERS!
I keep them separate.
Since the move though they are all mixed up. Need to find a minute to sort.
At least to put all the music ones together.

Bitey System:
Porn - where the mrs cant find it

Movies - in alphabetical order (seperate to anime)
Kids - in a big draw in the family room - they manage it themselves, i do a true up every 6 months
Anime - in alphabetial order (seperate to movies)
All titles are managed through collectorz.com movie collector system - including loans, production of lists / web pages etc
Cheers,

I arrange them alphabetically, but keep the Red and Blue on opposite sides.
