personally I think dvd's were a terrible invention. half the time I buy a dvd it doesn't play right a month later. I never had a vhs skip on me or just stop playing.

i dont think i would have been able to isolate the frame of jessica alba's nip in "into the blue" as clearly on a VHS machine tho. only could have happened on DVD.

but yes, they can be frustrating. sooo many things more frustrating tho.

the dvd and cd are terrible inventions.. they are bulky and prone to scratches..
i would have really liked to see the mini disc take off..

yes, i've held onto my minidisc stuff for that reason. and cuz portable digi recorders are still too expensive.

The corkscrew! The dam thing never works right. I always end up turning the cork into mulch

i see them as more of a fashion statement (like blue tooth head sets) than a media player
