I have to agree with a lot of Frank@N's comments.
I too feel the same as Dave (the thread starter), but I don't think my enthusiasm is dwindling because DVD's have somehow lost thier luster, I think it's more the fact that I don't have enough time to truly appreciate every disc I buy.
My facination with DVD's has grown so vast that I (as others have mentioned) have a separate area for "unwatched" DVD's. This area gets bigger and bigger all the time. I just can't imagine keeping up with my purchases, yet (at the same time) I can't imagine slowing down in my purchases because I LOVE the format so much.
I do find myself skipping a lot of the extras...I couldn't even imagine finding the time to listen to EVERY commentary track on the LOTR discs.I can totally relate. It does seem like such an undertaking when you see all the "unwatched" DVD's sitting there on your shelf...Of course, it's a different story when I pop them into the player and am WOWED by the presentation, but I do see what you're saying about looking at a stack of DVD's and thinking "When will I EVER have the time to watch all of these?" or "Why did I buy all of these discs?"
