I'd hang on to your collection.
Unless you're anal (don't really know what that means) and want everything "just so" (no bastard formats lying around).
The fact that you purchased these DVDs means you have some interest in their content. Even if you only watch them on a rainy afternoon, they will be there for you.
Also, I find OWNING something gives me an excuse for NOT watching it if I stumble onto it channel surfing. I can't tell you how many times I've been sucked into watching "The Alamo". Since I own it, cut WAY back!
Finally, new DVD players can upsample to 1080i.
This adds lots of value to existing libraries.
I watched "Road to Perdition" and was AMAZED by the detail and texture in the clothing worn by Tom Hanks & Paul Neuman in the church basement scene! Great stuff!
I have plenty of DVDs but can't really think of more than a score that would benefit from HD treatment.
The film source just isn't that good.
Shooting a film in HD is really an infant art form.
I.E., the really great HD films havn't even been created yet.
Keep them disks!
