Films/DVD Asylum

No DVD at all? Well, the wife & I may have gone the "overkill" route, but we love DVD!

We decided that the dust wasn't going to settle soon enough and now we own 4 progressive scan DVD players (Panasonic, SONY, JVC & Akai), two of which, the JVC & Akai units, were purchased because they perform PAL/NTSC conversion and the Panasonic because it also has DVD-A. LOL! Well, perhaps it is overkill and a bit nuts to own four DVD players, but after all, this is the "Asylum" isn't it? :o) FTR, as "committed" as we are, we'll probably auction off the SONY on eBay, eventually. Originally we bought as a back-up player, but we don't use it that often. As for High-Def, well, it's already here, bud! Nearly all of the Prime time shows are in HD, some of the movie channels too, and the sporting events are killer, that is, if you like sports.
Cheers,

Wow, you just may be as nuts as Clark - tinear 12:29:30 06/21/03 (0)
thinks you are! 4!!!
I very much enjoy watching the end of sporting events, i.e. NBA finals, last rounds of US Open, finals of Wimbledon, etc.
Do you know if ESPN has HD or is it just the big (old) three?
BTW, I do have an Accuphase which I understand will decode DVD...so I won't have to buy a very expensive player, just something to act as a transport.
Now, as soon as plasma comes down a bit...(is it considered the equal of conventional tubes, now?).
