Heheh, however ... DVD was a big improvement over laserdisc.

(Although, I miss the way laserdisc movies would simply BEGIN when you inserted the disc. No menus, no commercials, no THX trailer, often no FBI warning. Ah, simpler times. Far fewer extras, but I appreciated the way I could geekly replicate a movie-going experience.)

Wait, I thought you said there were no ads before the movie on the laserdisc.
