There's no point trying to sell them. Nobody is buying them. Even if you find a second hand store that will take adult DVDs, they will probably give you only $50 for your entire collection. I mean a few cents per title. Do you really have thousands of porn DVDs?

Unfortunately, there is simply no market for DVDs anymore. They are an obsolete format, or will be soon. Like Laser Disc, VHS, audio cassettes, mini-Discs, 8-track tapes (remember them?) Just more relics

The reason to keep them is that if you have a favorite, physical media ensures you can watch them when you want. There is no guarantee that content will continue to be available online. especially when it comes to porn. So much porn is being made constantly, porn from the past is just not profitable. Your DVD may be the only way you can rewatch a certain scene.

If you are embarrassed about telling family members about it... just don't tell them. What's the point. You would hope to have more important things to think about and say on your deathbed or whatever.

I still have my DVDs and my player. I will probably never upgrade to Blu Rays. just keep using this old tech until it doesn't work anymore. I guess that is me getting older and caring less about such things.

There is no nostalgia for 480p. That is the maximum resolution in DVD format, without an upscaler in your player.

Viewers these days are accustomed to high definition on their damn phones. 1080p or higher, no going back. Nothing charming about pixelation.

By the way, DVDs look HORRIBLE on modern 4K TVs.

And why wouldn't they? DVDs were designed for use with CRT TVs. More technology that is only in museums now, haha

It kind of perplexes me that you have thousands of DVDs. Surely you haven't watched them all. why buy something you don't watch.

There are ways of rapidly departing a large collection by contacting a porn wholesaler who would be glad to come to your home and remove the items, also considered giving it to someone who will treasure it as much as I do after I'm gone, something to ponder as we get older.

I had a massive adult magazine collection as well as dvd's, hence I said "had" because they found it and burned it up, I experienced a medical emergency back in February, basically I had one foot in the grave, had slipped into a coma and woke up in the hospital with a serious infection, spent two months in hospital, then about 5 in rehab, I was totally at the mercy of my health care providers, was totally helpless in the early stages of this crisis!

During this time some of my family thought I wasn't going to make it so I signed over to them executors of my estate, which as you may know gives them the right to make decisions on my behalf, especially financial, what ever they think was in my best interest, so they convinced me to sell a piece of property I own which by the way was where the building was that contained my porn lair, out of sight out of mind you know what I mean! anyway, I gave them instructions to not interfere with anything in the office until my return, which they thought would never happen at that point, long story short I miraculously recovered and upon my return discovered some of my most cherished magazine and dvd collection had been found and destroyed! And I'm a piece of shit! some of my relatives were cool with it, the men, but my female relatives were disgusted, and I think my reputation is in the tank with them unfortunately.

Many of the magazines were Hustlers Barely Legal series, so I'm accused of dabbling in child porn now, I had every Barely Legal magazine back to the first issue in 95, found the entire lot on eBay when Ebay still sold adult magazines, bought the entire lot for about $2500, I was so proud of them I even bagged and boarded them, it's something that comic book collectors do, also invested in a $600 filing cabinet where I neatly organized the collection by date, it's all gone, cabinet and everything!

But I'm recovering well now thank you very much, coping with the loss of one of my most beloved porn treasures is hard to reconcile with, I'm more depressed over losing my porn collection than I am with nearly dying, this is a cautionary tale for those of you who may be getting close to having to disperse something like that before the inevitable, before it's too late, because the world will find out eventually that you were a total pervert! To be honest i'm not the least distressed over everyone finding out about my secret passion, because I'm like I'm sure many here at ADT am not the slightest bit ashamed of porn, I regard it as exactly what it is, Adult entertainment, the models are for the most part no different than those who work for non porn entertainment, nothing to be ashamed of.

I still have the DVDs as well, although there aren't many. These days, with everything moving toward streaming, I guess they'll be destroyed sooner rather than later.
