DVD - what I don't like about it:
1) Why can't DVD's start playing IMMEDIATELY? DVD is certainly more convenient than video (no rewinding) but the entire menu idea is a bunch of crap. If I want special features, options, etc. then let me use a keyboard command or click a button on my remote control. Otherwise, play my goddamned movie. (Please.) Imagine for a moment a slot-loading TiBook -- pop in a DVD, and seconds (fractions of seconds) later, you're watching your feature. The technology is there to do that, but will we ever actually experience it?
2) With video, you could fast forward the FBI warning, the studio animation, etc. but on DVD there's a huge wait while I am forced to look at a warning that does not/will not/never will pertain to me. Put the goddamned FBI warning on the physical DVD itself if you need me to see it, but don't ruin my viewing experience. (Please.)
Anyone else agree? Disagree?
Regards,
PEte
PS - anyone ever notice on the Apple DVD player, you can fast-forward/rewind up to the beginning of a chapter, and then for about 10 seconds, you are forced to watch before ff'ing/rewinding further?

PS - really.
wtf is with all the damned commercials at the beginning of movies at the movie thearters!?? with those added to the previews (which aren't that bad), it took almost 30 minutes till MIB II started! damned heartless-multinational-corporations trying get every buck they can...
oh well...sh!t happens....can't do anything about it
bunch of ****ing sheep!
if you don't like the commercials, walk out and ask for your money back. find a theatre that doesn't show commercials. they're out there.
yeah, you can't do anything if you won't do anything.
can't do anything.
DVD's are cool and I dont care about the FBI warning! Go widescreen! Go dolby 5.1! Go "with the filmaker" mini-movies! Yay!
btw anyone used MacDVDExtractor? While big companies are busy pissing casual, honest users off, people who want to pirate can. >:-> What'd the pirate say the movie was rated? ARGH!
The problem is i like Disneys... <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" />
And most of the stuff in Italy is with the cra.. advertisings in the beginning :eek:
The thing i most hate in the dvds is the price. Here in italy they are about 25 $ each.. a standard one, the starting prices are there, even more. And i am poor...
