This is very true. I worked in the rental business and the amount of previews and the inability to skip them are almost always affiliated with rental copies. They also exclude special features, commentaries etc.

Racketboy and Opera don't seem to play nice together,

I forgot opera even existed. :lol:

Not sure why it says that. On all of my browsers, it works just fine.

Geeze how many librarians are there on this forum? (I'm one also.)
This might sound stupid, but what is your duty as a librarian? Are you just responsible to organise and manage the library or are you supposed to know every book in there, what is it about, and where is it stored.

And when you say a library, how big are we talking about? How many books are in there

People with Bluray players (ps3's) , why are you still buying DVDs?

Also, DVDs are really surviving . Its taking more than VHS took , VHS died something like 6 or so years after DVD release (96-> 2002, I believe last VHS movie released in 2004) . Bluray has been around for 7 years, almost everyone owns HDTV, movies are literally free to download through piracy in higher quality (in HD) and more convenient than going to pick up from the store, yet the DVD survives . I kind of feel that the DVD has higher sales than Blurays still.

I haven't seen a DVD in ages, but damn it was awesome to pop in a DVD and see an interactive menu for the movie in the late 90's

For a while, any time I got a Racketboy link in a Bing result it would give me a similar deal (possible attack site). I just checked now though and it didn't report any problems.
