Given my interests, needs, desires, etc, I'd buy a SVHS deck before a
laserdisc player. But, thats mainly because I want to record to the thing.
With a few exceptions, I reasonably happy with DVDs, especially when
considering the price difference between media for the two. I'm just
concerned about them cranking the distortion (err compression) higher for
future generations rather than expanding the capacity.
