What DVD Feature Do You Like Best?

1. Multi-angle, for my massive porn collection.

2. Other...the ability to subscribe to Netflix

Other than that...its just an obvious advance in technology.

3. Widescreen, widescreen, widescreen!

It was always hard to get a videotape that hadn't been cropped or, worse, pan & scanned. I want to see the entire movie, the way the director intended it to be seen!

I still think my laserdiscs have slightly better sound quality, but the DVD picture is even better than LD.

4. A funny story

I'm the techie in my family. My mother, sister and niece all live together. They purchased their first DVD player a few years ago, and I received a frantic call from them because SOMETHING WAS WRONG! Could I come over and take a look?

I did, and they played the DVD and I said..."Uh, what's wrong?"

You know it's coming.

"What are those black bars on the screen????"

I told them it's supposed to be like that.

I'm pretty sure they exchanged the DVD for a (ugh) full-screen version the next day.

And the worst thing is they have a very nice TV, it's huge, S-video and composite video inputs, and I'm stuck with a crappy 20 inch JVC.
