I found my CED player at a garage sale over 5 years ago. The guy just wanted to get ride of it so he sold it to me with about 15 movies for $1. It came with Star Wars; Rocky; Empire Strikes Back; The Making of Michael Jackson’s Thriller; Raiders of the Lost Ark; The Warrior & the Sorceress among others. The Warrior and the Sorceress is a B-grade David Carradine movie if there ever was one. It’s most famous for having a 4 breasted belly dancer. My player is very bottom of the line. It only has 4 buttons: forward chapter skip; play/pause; power; & eject, or as it says on the player reject. When the player starts it sounds like a car that is having problems starting until the player has picked up enough momentum to spin the disc at full speed. Some of the movies play for the most part with only a few skips, well others can be seen in about 15 minutes. I only bring the player out when I want to show friends an older form of home entertainment. Because most people have no idea what I’m talking about, or they think I’m talking about a laserdisc.
