i do agree, older movies are hard to get now on dvd and unless the quality
is watchable they never see the light of day. Lets hope that hddvd is only
limited to new movies rather than re issueing old stuff, i dont mind paying
extra for a new movie with hd but would still like to see old movie released
in normal dvd quality so when get the benefit and those who dont have hd tvs
or players
