I've wanted something like this so that I can have a custom bookshelf behind me in teams calls. I was tempted to make one but had no clue where to find book spine artwork.
You just… built exactly the thing I was working on. Except it looks better. I’ve had this before, but I figured this project would be small and niche enough that it‘d never happen. Crazy shit.

Very cool! I've wanted to build something similar to this for music. Some virtual environment where you can organize your albums on shelves and play them on a turntable. You could even extend this so you have to walk to a store to buy new albums etc.
I can't remember the name, unfortunately, but a year ago, I saw a oculus quest VR environment which re-created a standard 90s era bedroom. The user could then add a text file containing a bunch of YouTube URLs and all the associated YouTube videos got represented as physical VHS tapes that you had to put into the actual VCR in order to play them on the TV in the room.
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.
