In the last few months I decided to see what I could find on DVD and Blu-ray. It's a matter of luck and persistence but I do find good stuff now and then. Anyone else find missing Blu-rays from combo Blu-ray and DVd sets? Or DVD-Rs instead of pressed? And how do some people manage to scratch their discs so impressively?

No idea what I'm doing here so I'll just type out whatever pops into my head.

Has anyone noticed that in the last few months the offer of DVDs and Blu-rays at Renaissance has shrunk and on top of it, the prices vary a lot store by store? Some Renaissances sell Blu-rays at $4.50 while some like Cote Des Neiges are at $8?

And you still need to check for scratches, or missing discs, or if it's the right disc.
