rockcity posted:They got a quick mention in the OP. I personally never met anyone who actually owned one of them. My school had a whole bunch of them, but I've never seen one outside of school use. How much did those things go for anyway, and what did a disc itself cost? I was about 8 when I remember them, so I wasn't that up to speed on price back then. I disagree on the "poor selection". Nearly every movie released on VHS from 1980-1997 had a LD counterpart. I still have a LD player, although I rarely us it anymore. I have a few titles that are not on DVD or any other disc format. Mostly concerts and Star wars things. One thing LD had that surpassed most DVDs, was PCM audio. DVDs usually had low bit rate Dolby 2.0 as their 2 channel option, while LD used the same format as CD. live concert discs were usually quite a bit better sounding on LD. Players could range from $500-$2000. Movies were usually $40-100, depending on the number of discs. Cornjob has a new favorite as of 17:33 on Jul 13, 2012 |
