I mean yeah he got things wrong. (biggest one being CAV discs not having advantages over CLV besides just image quality). But this video sorta inspired me again about LD. I guess I should finally replace that belt in my LD player, so that I could play a movie without having to use the tray 5 times. Also I hope LD players don't get too expensive because of this video. We know what tends to happen every time Techmoan covered a topic. |

We know what tends to happen every time Techmoan covered a topic. I doubt if prices will go up after this video. A well-done 1080P Blu-ray still looks much better than L.D.'s for the same film. Only the ones with a digital comb filter make the cut for any type of comparison. Better yet, is the 3D digital comb filter. (nothing to do with 3d videos.) |

I typed up a typically mean spirited reply for this but apparently never hit Submit. Oh well, you can guess my thoughts. If Techmoan talked about something 8 years ago you’re clearly retreading some tired old stuff. f**k…just look at the way the a*****e is holding the thing in the key frame. I want to “find where he lives and push local dog s**t through his mail slot”, as Bobby Fingers, an actually great YouTuber, would say. Doesn’t this guy have any friends or family to tell him to not do this? |

It seems to be the on-going price in the USA on eBay. Faulty models are ~$500, barely tested players ~$800 and working/+accessories are all above $1,000. Note that eBay takes about 20~25% of the player + shipping in fees. So it really should be 25% lower, which is closer to the prices of a CLD-A100 in Japan. Julien |

A lot of the time, this damn dude making a video about something = prices inflate. I was certainly bummed to see that he made a video about them, haha. The retro gamer crowd generally eats up anything this guy makes a video about. Hopefully not too many LD players get damaged during shipping because of this video

YES. I tried to delete this post because, thanks to Linus, it had inaccurate information in it. I pride myself on NEVER putting inaccurate stuff anywhere on the internet because there are tons of it out there on every topic known. The problem was I did not know enough about Laser material to know he got a couple of things wrong. As you can see by the few posts I have made, I am HARDLY a troublemaker. Looking at it, despite the complaints, the misinformation is still on here. Maybe an admin SHOULD take this whole thing down for the next newbie who will watch the vid, and be slightly misinformed. Don't worry. I will not try to dilute it with random things again. |

It’s OK. We hate on any mainstream plebes invading our turf. We aren’t holding you responsible for the content of the video. I didn’t even watch it! I just took one look at the key frame and decided I didn’t like him. |

This is nothing of your fault, its a cool thing to see but when you have a doorknob who looks like a clone of Kenny Loggins and doesn't know much about LDs I want to see him crash and burn. I think any of us have forgot more about LDs that Kenny 2.0 will ever know, I wouldn't even have the courage to do a video about LDs, I don't know enough. daveskynet wrote: YES.
