It's unbelievable really. Back in 1998, DVDs were priced at £19.99 -
£24.99, and that was that. Now you're looking at paying £5 or so for
anything that's not a brand spanking new release, and the newspapers
are giving away DVDs left right and centre.
It's just a shame that the same thing hasn't happened to housing,
food, fuel, energy, council tax, etc. That would make life a heck of a
lot easier!
