> Right, one movie to one DVD at one time, eh? My wife started doing that, luckily I had found a great source for brand new blank DVDRs. So, with 5 movies to a disk, each movie, playable on our DVR, cost 3.5c!

  I average about 10 3-8 KB .mp4 films per DVD, using data with Nero.  

> I can put the shows/movies into folders

  My movies are listed by year on a DVD.
  That is a DVD with movies from the whatever decade, in order.
  I'll have a disc from 1900, a disc of films of the 1910's, '20s, etc.
  Once those are viewed the disc is erased and ready for the next round of
that era.
  TV shows though, for the most part, are one series per disc, by date.
  I get my shows from YT, https://www.solie.org/alibrary/updates.html, and
https://tubitv.com. 
  I once used a site called Let Me Watch This (or something similar) along
with Gorilla and something else but those kept disappearing, re-named, etc
and gave up on them.

  You and me both.
  Free is good.  :)
