DVDs


Why is it that they can't make a DVD that will work? I take damn good care of my DVDs and I am constantly having to sit there while they skip and chunkify or just plain freeze up. Even brand new ones do this occasionally. Sometimes it seems that only the copies I have work right...all my legitamately purchased ones play like shit.

What makes it worse is when you loose the remote control to the player there is no navigating the menu so you can't quit the DVD and reboot the player unless you are willing to sit through the whole movie again just to get back to the part that is breaking.

I think half the problem is that DVD players all seem to be made out of substandard components. None of them work right. Computers don't have half the problems store bought players have.

Annoying.

When you find yourself at the bottom of a hole, stop digging.

I think in code: while(1) execute();
