Multiple disks is not an annoyance to me. If they are for you, they are for you. But how does the whole scratch argument apply? A disk of a single disk game is just as scratch prone. |
So you are saying that based on probability that having to handle 4 discs is less likely to cause one of them to get scratched than just handling one disc? What about all the time you have to spend pulling out and putting away each of the individual dics, not to mention the fact that games are FAR more likely to pop out of the casing while being stored when their are multiple discs. Those stupid little plastic flaps in the middle of the DVD case are way more prone to letting go of the disc than the standard holder is.
And actually, in the case of Blu-Ray there is a scratch advantage, because it has a spray on lining that helps prevent scratch damage. Don't believe me? Go look at the videos online on Youtube of people scratching their discs with STEEL WOOL and then playing them in their PS3 with no problems.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
