I have a similar problem with books and DVDs accumulating away from their home, but in the room I intend watching them in at the time (case in point, having just come to sit in the living room so I can work on a project - I've brought with me six DVDs - I do not have that much time - at most I'll get through two before I have to move room). I also gather a group of books that I think will be 'next' and then read a couple of them before repeating the process. I do hit them all and return them after a while, but a little more discipline earlier would save me having to return them!
