It would be nice but I think there are other sites that do that but I could be wrong. Anyway it would be like adding DVDs and BDs to the site which would make the focus not about LDs anymore. Also the librabry for CED, HD DVD and VHD are rather small compared to to VHS, DVDs and the growing number o... |

Also Laserdisc Vault and Bullruckle is... |

I think out of all my acquisitions from ebay I might have gotten only 2 at the most 4 cracked movies though I do know I've been pretty lucky since not all of them know how to pack. |

I guess it has something to do with the way its encoded. That doesn't make sense for a disc to take an hour to load. I use a PS3 and some Disney's take a while to load from inserting the disc to the opening scene. Some movies seem to hang on the capabilities of the player where it might take 2 to 3 ... |

I buy from there since I don't know where is to look. I could only find a copy of Baoh on eBay. They should protect the sellers more I don't see how anybody makes money from it. I've probably lost more than I made with bad decsions on the shipping costs. I came under what it actually cost to ship it... |
