I love laserdiscs. I have four players- two Pioneer, one Sony and a Yamaha. The Yamaha is a really nice unit, has s-video and optical digital outs and all that fun stuff. Model CDV-W901 if anyone is curious. Only issue I've had with it is sometimes the disc drawer doesn't want to open but that straightens out once it's exercised a bit. I've always loved watching movies like The Last Starfighter on it. Still need to pick up another copy of Tron as mine's still sealed. Now that I think of it, I believe I have WarGames and The Last Starfighter on just about every format they've been released on.

gah, don't remind me that I need to buy Last Starfighter on DVD. I keep forgetting to pick it up, and have been meaning to for years. :(

My dad had a ton of laserdiscs when I was young.  He had a Pioneer player (and speaker system) and several hundred laserdiscs.  Not sure what he ended up doing with them...
