I was actually thinking about this all last night. I don't buy the crap that the bootlegs are better, because 1. You should really OWN the laserdisc first, before owning the bootleg (which means the PAL French LD's if getting Moth3rs, or the Definitive Edition if getting Citizen's... etc - and even then it isn't legal, unless you transfer it yourself with written permission from the copyright holder), 2. The Laserdiscs are more expensive then the DVD's, even if you don't count the price of getting an LD player. 3. They're more work and more troublesome - you'll get analogue noise, you'll need to flip sides while watching the movie. 4. The official DVD is legal, has the original 1977 crawl - something no bootleg has - and is DVD quality.am i alone here or are some of us breathing a collective sigh of relief? if you've seen the discs, please post your impressions.
I think if anyone is going to disagree they should at least own the Laserdisc and not just a DVD bootleg.
