Now that HD DVD is officially ending, will this topic at AD also?

If it wasn't for bad luck, I'd have no luck!

Probably not. There are so many out there, both hardware and movies, that will be around for several years.

Why can't we have a laserdisk section? Or a TED video system thread??

Funny how nobody ever comes asking about minidisk players eh? Another sony format winner.

I've still got a Sony minidisc player, almost new and something like 8yrs old, hundreds of the discs that i spent loads on too at the time , didn't like overwriting them as they took so long to record onto in the first place :(
Even had a car minidisc player, ah, the memories of all those Trance tunes in the car in 99/2000

I had one for a while. Brilliant machine spoiled by lack of affordable media. That has always been the way with philips/euro media inventions (apart from the laserdisks immediate successor.. the VCD/CD.
Sold mine about 85. They still have a pretty hardcore following in certain circles, which shows how well they were made.

I like all these old obscure media formats.. Anybody seen the picture quality from a philips 1500 VCR?? Big let down 30 mins recording time, later increased to 1 hour) The big fault with those machines wasn't so much the tape technology as the cable loading mechanism.. it's a nightmare of string and springs. A N1700 will outperform any later VHS machine, but happy hunting for tapes ;)
