I am an avid Laserdisc collector and would be grateful if any of yourselves on this site, who are still into the laserdisc, software and Hardware would get in touch, as i look forward to hearing from you all.

So... Broomo/Zigfried whatever you call yourself these days, what kind of laserdisc software do you have?



Sorry friend what do you mean by 'whatever you call yourself these days'

Where do i start with answering your question?

I started purchasing Laserdisc's in March 1998 97% of my collection are from the USA.
3% are PAL (but most PALS are not that good.)

From 1999 to present day i have been purchasing many titles from Japan and i must admit i do prefer these (the cover art and quality covers faultless.

By the end of this year i should have completed the purchase of most title i am looking for

Currently have reserved in Japan with one seller aprox: 45 titles and aprox: 8 titles with another.

I did not realise how attached i would be to the format, but i am glad i did.

I love changing the disc's, the sound of the players and so on.
The only drawback about this format is the cost of the disc's and player's, but i guess that's the price you pay for being different.

Shall be purchasing a Brand new Pioneer ELITE CLD 97 in August, from a seller in the USA which will take about four payments.

In July i will be purchasing an HLD X9 from a seller (friend) in the uk which will also take about five payments.

Finally i shall be purchasing a Pioneer HLD X0 in 2008 from one of the sellers in Japan who will have the player fully serviced before shipment.

All this has been a labour of love for me and also a struggle, but i shall eventually get there.

How about things with yourself and how is life with you.

Kindest and sincere regards

So, do you also have the Star Wars definitive collection LD box set with the hardcover book?
