DVD's
May 25^th, 2008 at 5:43pm

Some people like to buy just the regular DVD's and then people like myself who are collector's buy the boxed sets and/or the DVD's which come with an extra special features disc and now they have DVD's which you can download a digital copy to your computer hard drive.

And there are HD DVD's but those have been phased out by the Blu-Ray DVD's. I would like to have Blu-Ray discs but the players and the DVD's are on the more expensive side so I might go that way sometime in the future.

I am curious, are you a collector or do you just buy the regular DVD's?

I don't buy DVD's often but when I do I just buy the regular ones. I typically don't care about stuff like deleted scenes etc.

I purchased the collectors edition of Pretty Woman, not knowing that they added additional scenes to the movie. I felt that the added scenes weren't any good and made the movie less likable. So whenever I want to see Pretty Woman, I wait for it to come on cable.

Although, I have been wanting to replace my Purple Rain DVD with the 20th anniversary collectors edition. I don't believe that there are extra scenes (hopefully). I only want it because they include the music videos from all of the songs in the movie. I just haven't gotten around to getting it though. Tongue

I just love it all!! And commentary, it has to have commentary(though that usually would come with the regular DVD)

Easy Rider If extra scenes are there I'd humor it and watch them. But I do not have a DVD player. I don't have a cellular phone, either. I am obsolete.

Rodent, out of the very many computers you have you are saying not even one has a DVD drive on it?

2 of the computers I have do have DVD drives but the new HP has the burner and it is nice to put 4.7 GB on a disc instead of worring if there is space on the old CDR 700 MB discs Roll Eyes

But, I am very far from anti-technology because even though it does make things a lot easier and even makes some people lazy it is very nice to have Cool

I was at Target and saw the boxset of Clint Eastwood Dirty Harry Ultimate Collector's Edition and I could not pass it up so I bought it Tongue

I also thought of buying the Rambo boxset but I already have the first two boxsets which have the 3 movies and I just bought the two disc version of the newest Rambo but if I ever see the newest set for dirt cheap I will probably buy it Roll Eyes

Yes, I have eight computers. They are obsolete, too. I am obsolete.

Yes, Jerry, the one with Vista has a DVD player but I don't have the program to play movie DVD's. This one is a 3 ghz P4 with a gig of memory that was given to me with a blown drive and bad main board that was repairable, but I don't have the programs that came with it. Well, maybe that computer isn't totally obsolete...
