Home Cinema Renovation?

Try and remember the old days of VHS instead of shiny, new DVDs or even cassettes instead of CDs. Think of the trauma and heartbreak you went through about having to replace your whole collection with the 'Next Big Thing'. Those amazingly sleek and thin discs that were able to skip scenes, return to the menu and all that jazz. They were revoluntionary and groundbreaking, everyone wanted them,

But what about the poor souls like you and me who didn't want to throw out or trade our clunky VHS films? After years of collecting everything from Disney classics to The Godfather Trilogy, us select few cherised VHS for nostalgia sake and didnt want to part with them.

However, times change and countless DVDs were brought and they became the newest treasures of my bedroom. So think of the cheek of influencing me to conform to the new format design and then to just take that all away again after a few years, by introducing the brand new and even better Blu-Ray discs. Once again i have been asked to change formats and replace my second collection of films.

Where's the justice in that?!

Do you agree with me?
Or would you rather upgrade?
Comments please :)
