Digital Foundry Retro Blu-Ray Collection Being Considered

I'd buy it!
Though I assume the Patreon versions are already the highest quality we could get, unless there's some ultra high bitrate versions hiding on John's PC. Maybe some cool extras would make it worth it for existing patrons.

I don't have the ability to download the high but rate versions and play them on my TV, so the blu rays would be prefect.
Well...it's Retro so it's not going to be HDR obviously as none of the content is HDR.
I would buy it John. It would be like having an encyclopedia on gaming history.
But I wonder, how many discs would such a collection need, since most of DF Retro's vídeos are pretty lengthy?

My bad, I got too excited and didn't read until the end.
I like the idea nonetheless and hope also that more people will get to support you on your Patreon. You guys post some of my favourite content on Youtube.
I mean I love the idea and would buy regardless, but - yeah - it surely would need to be 60 FPS if possible.

Only because the point of this thread is to genuinely gauge interest, I'll be honest and say I'd never buy this. But if you go through with it, I hope it's successful!
With bonus extras and additional commentary and without Youtube's horrible compression.
Since these are all retro games, obviously, I'm not sure how much the resolution drop would matter.
I would love something like this. I'd be open to support a Kickstarter if that's what it would take.
DF retro is really well made, the Virtua Racing one recently was fantastic.
Wonder how many per disc.

Would hardly be the first time someone does that. The AVGN also sells seasons of his show on DVD/Blu-Ray but you can still watch it all for free on YouTube.
Only interested at 60fps, full quality. Retro games at 30fps is a no go for me.
Can 4k blu rays not do 1080p60fps/4k60fps? I'd pay extra for a 4k disc if it does support 60fps at higher than 720p resolutions.

Exactly, if it's not ok YouTube there is zero chance I'll watch it
I'm not one that usually cares for buying physical versions of videos I can (legally) watch for free on YouTube, but I still like the idea of all the episodes being collected together with additional content and gladly support it knowing there's people who would be interested.
Basically, I'd still chip in $5 if a Kickstarter happened just to have something like my name be in the credits.
