Digital media is not really collectable. Sure, you can collect it, but it isn't worth anything. <P>Welcome to the forum. Here's a frying pan. learn to weild it well, you may need it.

It <I>can</I> be collectable. For example, action figures, count as collectables because people want them, but there's not very many (relatively) of them.<P>Now, if you've got a rare picture or scan or wallpaper that you post and people say they've been looking for, or that's really cool, e.g. Tony Knightcrawler's CCG scans... that counts as collectable...

Collectables require that they not be easily duplicatable I believe. Hence why things are bootlegged. digital images may be something a person collects, but are not really collectables, as they are extremely easy to duplicate and transfer.
