Hi all,A couple months ago, a friend gave me his laserdisc player (pioneer non-elite model) and collection of movies. I love them. I have realized that i like laserdiscs better than DVDs (i am also into vinyl- go figure). They seem so much more natural and film-like, even on my relatively low-mid-end Panasonic 27" TV. I searched the archives here and found i am not alone in this preference. (whew, i'm not that weird) THen this weekend i watched the one Star Wars LD he had, Empire Strikes Back, the THX edition (not the special edition with the obnoxious digital additions) My roomate and i were blown away by the quality of sound and picture. I ordered the other two Star wars movies. i found how cheap laserdiscs are now, and i am wondering if should start buying more. I am very tempted, and scouring eBay.
What do you all think? Is it a bad idea to get into collecting a dead format? LDs seem much better to my eyes and ears, should i go with it? Will i be struggling to find a player if and when this one breaks down? Someone at least tell me they prefer LDs too so i know i am not nuts.
Thanks,
eric
