Bright future for Laserdisc????

The pace of laser disc production has slowed down but all the major theatrical releases are still produced, just not in the numbers they used to. 4-5 years ago a major motion picture would have caused 50,000 units to be produced, where today that # has fallen o 10,000 units produced for sale, all this is according to what people have told me from Ken Cranes, one of the many retail sources for laser discs. Try them there at www.kencranes.com There are dozens of places on the web to buy new and used Laser Discs, just search the web using the key word, "Laserdisc". As far as whether or not to buy a used LD player is up to you. I have one and love it. I also have over 100 LD's in my collection, and would never think of selling them! I also love DVD's and purchase both formats, however I do buy more DVD's than LD's. My advice is to do some research and have fun! BEST OF LUCK AND HAPPY MOVIE WATCHING. MIKE

Really not promising due to a couple of reasons: First not enough titles specially new available. Higher cost to manufacture related to construction itself (compare polycarbonate ammound used per laser disc and per DVD) and quantity produced of each. Second have two friends with Laser disc and DVD and Laser disc player collecting dust. Their experience also provides better image and less complicated operation no turning of discs. The decrease in production rate mentioned above also gives a good pointer to consider. Regards
