I know the purists love the flashy DVD's with post card and fancy box.....but i have joined the economy tour which includes the following
I am close to having all 1225 episodes on dvd after going to sears and buying a dvd-r vhs combo machine where i can dub and edit all the dvd's to my liking. Perhaps an illusion, but my dvd copies of the pre barn collectors series looks fresher than the original 54 volumes on vhs.........and thanks to Netflix i have had the dvd collections shipped to my home where i dubbed vhs copies back to dvd with amazing results....no bobbleheads, no club to join, and not having to wait till next year to see pre barn on dvd......happy happy joy joy!
I also did this with all the previous MPI vhs releases of special DS things like bloopers and music video etc. The only thing i wonder is what is the longevity of a DVD-R....and should i keep my vhs stock as back up.......decisions decisions. all this to say...thank you MPI for making the DS run available either on vhs or dvd...
