Laserdisc: Old School technology
So I just picked up an old school Laserdisc player.
Two questions:
1. Anyone else still into these?
2. Anyone looking to get rid of some movies?
I just love the feel of the big plastic discs, the cover art, etc. Very nostalgic for me.Andy -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Lexus ISF

not a fan of LD since the 90's. big cumbersome disc, took forever to spin them up. optical drives will soon all die to be replaced by solid state and hard drives.

I have a grip of Vietnamese karaoke LDs by the crate. My prized possession is definitely the uncut Terminator 2 LD on two discs. Two! FFFUUUUUUU.
