Newspapers seem to be trying to outdo each other on what they give away these days.

Mostly it's the DVDs that tend to interest me, and luckily I get the papers at work, so no need to go buying them for the vouchers. Just now, the Mail is doing the David Attenborough DVD set, 14 discs of episodes from his various shows. This is on top of 14 they did last year, so it should be 2 episodes from each.

Not to be outdone, the Times has the Michael Palin collection, a similar set of episodes from each of his programmes. Yet again, this is on top of a collection from last year (most of which I missed).

So do any of you collect these promo dvds? Or perhaps you throw them away? If you have a collection, do you even have time to watch them all?

I did think for a while about starting a website to swap them, especially useful if you have some missing or have lots of doubles. Would be good to know if any of you have some that you'd want to swap.

Cant say as I really collect them, snagged a few classic B&W movies that I liked though.

My partner has some studio issued promo DVDs actually from when she worked at Disney. Nothing particularly interesting title wise (mainly US TV series) but I love the packaging they come in. So much better than what you get at retail.
