I really wouldn't use equity as a reason for buying discs. For the
majority of discs, DVDs are a bad investment. They lose value as soon as
you buy them, and drop in value as time goes on. An occasional OOP disc
may go for more than it was orignally worth, but even then most times a
newer and better release eventually comes along and the old disc is worth
even less.
