Re: Tenth anniversary of the DVD...in America anyway
The first DVD I watched was X-men when I set up my home theater. I still remember the Shinnnnnnnngggggg sound going past three speakers when wolverine drew his claws. I also remember borrowing The Matrix and that was my favourite DVD to watch.
Then I got the Xbox playback kit and I watched DVDs on my Xbox downstairs because my mom and dad used the home theater a lot. I watched movies with them upstairs. I didn't watch much downstairs, but then my girlfriend introduced me to Arrested Development and Firefly, and I watched those downstairs. I never used the PS2's DVD because it was a piece of crap.
Now here I am, and my newest laptop, the mac, watches DVDs. I've watch 3 seasons of 24 for free from my campus library now, as well as a bunch of documentaries, some CSI: Miami, and everything I own, including seasons of Miami Vice. I also have watched Lost and Miami Vice with my girlfriend on my Xbox 360 once I got s-video for it.
DVD's been great. I don't see myself going HD for a long time.
