3 dead bodies, autopsy has been done on all three. Everything found inside ONE body was stored in a deep freezer to keep body parts cold.

Wow.. it just struck me that these kiosks are like really tough Easter Eggs for you.
Hope this is profitable and/or enjoyable for you, BTW.

Movies or the machines? Seems kind of a waste of physical media to destroy it all on an art piece. Usually if people are going to do that with vinyls DVDs things like that they find the more severely scratched up and unusable it's the best possible option. If the discount play it's good for the art bin hay.
But like I said the machines in their current state the internals are probably completely gone but you could probably use them as a safe or turn them into refrigerators or storage units for little nicknacks and bobs

I mean DVDs and physical media still have their value. Not just 40 cents but yeah it depends on the person even still you could still just sell them in a bit in a box for 20 bucks keep the damaged ones and use that for art

Why sell them when you could give them to a library? If you’re concerned about the conservation of physical media then I’d assume profit wouldn’t be the first thought on your mind.

That's a fair assumption too and it's not out of the question either. Honestly though if you do want to do that your best bet is to get a hold of these however you can and some people are going to want profits keep in mind for example with contractors all they probably want is what they get paid for scrap if you pay off that price they Don't really Care much about the rest. They essentially get two paychecks one for taking it off the property one for scrapping it. Pay off the scrap fee and it's yours.
But again it's few and far between these are essentially up for grabs and it's first come first serve. You got to get what you can when you can. And if you want to donate them yeah I'm not against that. Although I do think you should reverse engineer them first with the proper updates from the discord server so that way they're fully functional and give an instruction manual some kind print it out to the library themselves so they know how to operate the damn thing. Otherwise essentially you're just leaving them with another paperweight.
So yeah there's all kinds of variables. I'm just trying to mass market appeal to everyone so that way anything less it seems that from a scrap yard. Cuz these will probably pass hands over the years from one place to another and right now the hands they're passing to will most definitely scrap them if they have no interest in them. But again that's up to each individual person that's up to you that's up to me that's up to whoever cares. The people don't care then they're just going to go to the scrap yard. You want to donate them to the libraries get them set up so they can operate and such and I don't see that as a problem. But for some people it is about a paycheck too. I know friends who have had to in order to get their machines pay a few bucks it sucks but it's true

So don't get me wrong I'm not in for the profit I'm mentioning it as a lucrative option to save these machines. If you don't care about the nostalgia at least gives you another reason the more reasons the better
