because in the mid 80s when new and competing with the old betamax VHS tapes did not cost over 50 dollars each and a VCR multiple hundreds, oh, wait. yeah they did and taipion is just a ***** as usual.
Nice try, but I am not in any corner and I am not trying to back out.
It is as I said:
- for movies, the DVD wasn't that much of a good thing when they came out, it later was though
- for Data storage, if you ever used DVDs as storage (read: storage, not "copying some data for someone else or mobile use"), like you said you did, you did something wrong
[edit:] also you and your buddy claiming that the difference between a 1.44MB floppy and a CD is comparable to the difference between a CD and a DVD then I don't know what to say...
