If it's not released to home video - VHS, LD, DVD in the original
format - you have a choice of not getting or - or getting it and
enjoying what you can and then waiting for the time when/if it is
released in an original format.
If you don't have a choice do you say I won't watch it?
Too many good things haven't been transfered yet - and I've bought
more VHS in the last 2 years - about 10 - than I have in my entire
life. Things that are long OOP and will maybe never make it to DVD
- so I get them and make my own xfers - and wait and wait and wait
- hoping that someday someone will see the light.
I got a DVD last year that I had been waiting for since I first got
a video of it in 1985 on CED. Then there is another that was
released on a foreign DVD and has long gone out of print so I live
with the S-VHS copy I made from TV many years ago.
As I said - better to see part of a good film than not see any of
it at all.
