Quite frankly, unless you're planning on collecting a bunch of laserdiscs, I wouldn't go to the expense of buying a LD player just to play the OOT LDs on. I did that about 5 years ago, and had I known that the GOUT DVDs were coming out, I wouldn't have because it would have saved me several hundred dollars. :-/

Sounds familiar :o) and if it's just about SW you're right. The GOUT DVDs are better than any LD playback, X0 included. But media fanatic as I am, SW led me to the world laserdisc and I now have 3 players and over 300 discs.

A couple of posts back I read something about closed caption decoders. I still don't have one for my player, and in Europe no-one has ever heard of closed captioning. I see the occasional decoder passing by on ebay, can anyone tell me if all those decoders are suitable for laserdisc cc decoding, or do you need a special breed?
