I don’t get why people buy these. They are so easy and cheap to make It costs maybe ten to 15 dollars to get blank DVDs, an empty DVD case and the paper for the cover and inserts. Plus, the cover artwork for edits are numerous and available online for free. I personally aim to make my own DVD sets for my own personal usage when I find the time and house space for them. heck, maybe make some for my friends for free.

It’s very, very easy to understand why people purchase them.

1. they don’t know where to get them
2. they don’t know anything about torrenting
3. they don’t have a burner
4. they can’t be bothered

It’s really that simple. For a lot of people, 1/2 are the biggest deal-breakers. They’re computer illiterate.

And I also know many people who just don’t have computers anymore. They only have tablets.

I’m not condoning people selling them but there’s a reason that they do. I’d say that a majority of people buying them fit into one (or all) of the categories above

1)&2) are my main reasons. I haven’t used Torrents in YEARS! I just downloaded uTorrent and it’s so different now. I tried looking up the Grindhouse versions of the original trilogy and it just takes me back to Google. Plus, because I don’t use Torrents anymore, I have no idea which ones are legitimate or not. I understand why nobody, especially moderators on this site DON’T want to link to anything, but I can understand why people would rather just buy it. Hell, if the site I found didn’t have ONLY Blu Ray, I might even consider it! All I want are the Grindhouse versions 😛
