It's small volume, hence a PITA from a refining/transport aspect. With a

I'm telling you, it's time to change those old 8mm home movies over onto VHS
tapes...
I mean DVD's...
I mean iPod...
I mean streaming video....

Early 80's, I watched "Star Trek: The Motion Picture" (1979) at a retail
electronics store - played on a [big?] laser disk. I've never seen those old
[..."laser"...] disks in a home, though.


I have one, although it's in the closet (both physically and because it is
not ready to admit that it's obsolete ;-) ).

I also have about 15 movies on LD (also in the closet). At the time, the
movies ran about $60 - $80, so I didn't buy them very quickly.

Then, DVDs started making noise so I held-off buying more LDs to see what
was going to happen.

So ... $500 for the player and about $900 for the movies. I think I got
off cheap ;-)
