In northwich I could go to the cinema *ten* times for the same as it
costs me for a third-rate ****ty mastered DVD.

(most titles hit the market at about 29.99 and it costs 3.00 to get into
my local cinema.)


But for your £3 you're only buying the right to see the film once, whereas
with the DVD you're buying the right to watch it as many times as you like.
Plus, since I bought my DVD player and surround-sound system, I'm always
disappointed by the quality of the picture and the sound when I go the
cinema!
