I really miss my "Cluster-fvck vol 3" DVD, which I bought from 'The Dam' 20 years ago. Really impressive acting. Was able to hide in my bookcase, and keep the computer free of dodgy downloads Edited by Forest Hillbilly (13 Oct 2017 3.32pm) I disengage, I turn the page.

Picture resolutions is fantastic and allegedly better than Bluray who only won the battle as Sony had deeper pockets than Hitachi Same as VHS and Betamax back in the day, the lesser format won. You might still be able to rip those HD DVDs though, and get the benefit of the resolution and sound quality; your computers optical drive should be able to handle them and so you just need a ripping app to get it done.
