I have one of those! Craig Send a noteboard - 02/09/2009 07:28:50 PM
1) What kind of TV do you have? (brand, size, picture technology, etc)

20" Toshiba digital combo TV/VCR/DVD. Won it from work.

2) What side of the Plasma vs LCD argument do you fall on?

After all the hideous burn-in damage we had with the plasmas we had at work, gut instinct is LCD. I'm no connoisseur.

3) Do you plan a TV upgrade anytime soon?

Hopefully, actually. My roomie now works at Best Buy, so the employee discount has officially come into play.

4) Have you upgraded to Blu-Ray yet?

Negativo. Honestly, with a few exceptions, I haven't much been a fan of what I've seen of it. Especially with live-action stuff, the extra-realism actually ends up taking me out of the cinematic aspect of the movie/show.

5) How big is your DVD/Blu-Ray library?

About 130 movies on DVD, and about 30 TV show box sets. Also still got about 80 VHS's in a box around here somewhere.

6) Aren't Blu-Ray disks ridiculously overpriced still?? I mean $30+ for a new movie when you can get the DVD for like 1/2 that?? What's up with that?

Aye, it's pretty bad.

7) Am I alone in thinking a lot of movies aren't worth the additional premium it costs to get the modest upgrade in picture?

You are not alone. With a very few exceptions (like what I've seen of LOST on Blu-ray - oooooooohhh...)
I am made of poison.
