I did the math and with current HDD prices it’s legit cheaper to rip DVDs as 1:1 copies and store them on a NAS vs buying the shelf space my 1000+ movies and TV shows would need.
I’ll keep physical copies of the rares and classics, but the rest will be donated after I’ve digitised them.
I started with the movies, but I only had about 60 DVDs. I start ripping one on Saturday morning, then go do something else. Easy peasy and jellyfin does the rest.
