Very nice DVD/BR collection, but you are probably off one or two years with your first DVD.

The first DVD-players in the USA were launched 03/31/1997:

Thanks.  I just glanced at when DVDs became a thing and went with that.

But if I would have looked at my case instead...

...if I'm not mistaken I think it was close to 850 dollars for my first DVD player.  I remember also getting my first surround system and all this was still on a large analog TV.  Would put the black bars on top and bottom but I was trying to get ahead for when I could get a Hi-def TV.  My parents were confused as to why I was spending a bunch of money just to have a smaller image on the TV.  No matter how much I tried to explain to them that televisions would become flat and wide and eventually accommodate the widescreen format, they thought I was just full of shit.  



...to avoid getting banned for inactivity, I may have to resort to comments that are of a lower overall quality and or beneath my moral standards.
