This is a sad day for all LD (Laser Disc) fans... Pioneer is stopping the production of their three latest LD players, the DVL-919, DVK-900 and DVL-K88...

For your information, Pioneer sold over 3.6 Million LD players in Japan from 1981 to 2002.

no more production of the last 3 players from panasonic..

very very sad news..

(but good for collectors)..

now i know how the CED collectors felt when they stopped making those..

RIP LASERDISC - you are still my all time favorite physical format,

DVD's never had a chance.....(and neither does blu-ray!)..

later
