You're fucking nuts. I have it in several formats.
The Laser Disc format was 37 discs at $20 each. That's $740 for the
slow.

I have them. They were NOT that price when they came out. They were
$70 each. Just because you can now find them in a group set at a
discounted price doesn't mean you have an argument here.

You are just some lame tard that doesn't have a dime to your name.
Some of us have hundreds of discs, and several tens of TV shows on disc,
and Yes, I will be buying the HD release eventually. Particularly if I
can find it presented as a demo somewhere, so that I can examine if it is
worth the trouble.
