And that's why I still have an old RCA lazerdisk player. It's not even AC3, just plain old stereo. But when I see movies for under five bucks I can still grab them.

And the prior comment about Star Wars made me laugh. I picked up the original three Star Wars movies on Lazerdisc years ago because a guy came into a store in Louisville with the them in widescreen stereo and wanted to trade them in becaused he wanted the new AC3 version. The store would only give him 5 bucks so I waved him aside and gave him twice that.

I bought the RCA lazerdisc about three months later when it was being sold as a refurb from the RCA manufacturing plant in Indianapolis. By then I had about five other lazerdiscs picked up cheap.

And I just picked up three operas on lazerdisc on Ebay because no one else bid on them.

I love being just a little behind the electronics curve.
