Comment Re:DVD isn't so great as all that... (Score 1) 206
Actually, it is a fairly old TV :-(, but I still can't tell the difference. But its interesting that you bring up the point of studio transfers--considering the fact that they are trying to bring about a new standard, you'd think they would do a good job! I have been disappointed several times (at freinds houses of course...)
I agree with you that VHS don't last forever, but I think that people will start discovering that well used DVDs won't last forever (I can point out about 5 or 6 of my older but well taken care of CDs that are destined for coaster-dom).
I will admit, also, that for hard core fans DVD can be a boon. And I would also agree that I am not buying phantom menace until it comes with $100 bill or something--the dialogue made my stomach turn inside out!
