You certainly have more experience than I do with the two media. But, IME the LD mostly look far more like film than my DVDs. Not that either look anything like film. Maybe there are bigger differnces in players than I would have thought but I find DVDs to be pretty anoying. They are typically way to contrasty with no ability to negotiate subtle gradations in hue or value, many of them go to pieces with rapid motion in the image and they seem to all exagerate color saturation. The extras are often nice though.

It very well be your player and/ot connections. You may have a great late model LD player and a soso DVD player. I don't want to knock laserdiscs because I have watched them for almost 15 years and still do as many in my collection have not or might not ever be issued on DVD but it's just that, in a head to head comparison in a properly set up system, the DVD has the edge.
