The first DVD I ever owned was Lord of the Rings: Fellowships of the Rings EE It was given to me as a gift when it first came out, like what 5 years ago... which was 5 years before I even owned a DVD player!!
so, i had this great DVD and could never watch it because at the time I had 400 VHS and didn't want to switch up to DVD after all that investment in VHS...
now, 5 years later, I have learned the error of my ways, and have a DVD collection in the 200s+, which now rivals my defunct and dwindling VHS collection...
YAY!! progress and technology!!!
YAY! Capitalism!
