Sansar had that years ago. They re-created Aech's basement from Ready Player One, with walls of tapes in various formats.[1] This could be explored in VR. It was good for a few minutes of amusement, but not useful. They didn't have the rights to let you play much of the collection.
There's a business in Second Life which has virtual video stores, where all the videos are in boxes on shelves. You can walk around, look at the titles, rent them, and play them on your
virtual TV. Have friends over to your virtual house and you all see the same thing.
They have some rights deal which lets them do this for a few hundred videos.
The selection is comparable to what Redbox stocked.
This was big during COVID lockdown; not so much now.
