Indeed I remember Columbia House video club, and the $23.95 price
tags. However, the titles I have on VHS are all pushing 10 years old
now and still play beautifully, but what irks me is watching a
broadcast run of an episode of any given series, or even a feature
film, and catching scenes that were edited out of the copies I
purchased.
I mean, you'd think it would be the other way around, but the fact is,
EVERY DVD YOU HAVE (OR WILL EVER BUY) IS EDITED FOR CONTENT ... it's
just that the average braindead consumer refuses to believe it.
That's why I loathe the term "Remastered", because it doesn't mean
"improved" at all, it means the source material has been radically
altered from its original state, and THAT is a rip off.
