Poll question: Which DVD set should I return?

Choice A - the movie is half-crap but has a numebr of very ncie set pieces and the extras do look rather good... (hurry up June, Insurrection will be out!)

Choice B - Every sci-fi geek friend I have says to watch it. I did see the trailer and was floored by how great it was.

Choice C - LONGTIME fan of this hilarious series, until Will Smith fired Janet Hubert-Whitten in favor of Daphne Whatshernamewhohadnograceorcharmatall...

1. rent em from netflix next time

I don't buy anything these days without watching it first.

Star Trek 1st contact: Probably the best star trek since star trek II, the wrath of Kahn IMHO. Worth keeping if it was cheap. Insurrection sucked.

The Incredibles: Good but not as imminently re-watchable as other pixar films. Finding Nemo was 10x better. Cheeze ball ripoff of the fantastic four.

Fresh Prince: Dude. I'm not much of a fan of Will Smith, so i'm not the one to ask about this one. If you love the show, keep. If not, take it back.

6. I don't dupe DVDs. For one thing, dual layer doesn't xfer to single layer

very nicely.

Another is it's not legal.

I do have a DVD burner, but I merely archive my VHS and Laserdiscs to DVD format. Nothing illegal there as long as I keep the originals. (hell, I still own some of my original Amiga programs as I do play them from time to time. It's stupid how the system works, but that's how it works.)

I certainly see your point and I dont' like how draconian the industry is, but compared to other industries, DVDs usually offer a lot for the price.
