I was a collector in the 90s. Consider myself a cinephile from a young age, I always hated cropped or “pan and scan” releases, so paying an arm and a leg (at the time) for laserdiscs was a thing. Still have my Pioneer player and a box of about 100 discs. Haven’t watched them in years but can’t bring myself to get rid of them.
I also still have minidiscs and a player!
