Greetings,
For my post on technology I wondered about 10 minutes what to write about but it just seemed hopeless. I keep thinking about a movie I want to watch and it’s finally out. And so it came to be that I want to disccuss dvd’s and movie formats. Lately in my life I have come across various dvd titles and library materials that just can’t quite have a long life span. Is this related to technology? Of course it is, my technologically advanced dvd’s and cd’s scratch too easily. Cd’s are very convenient for storaging data and music but the data can be lost just as easily if the cd gets scratched or damaged.
Even though we can try to be very careful when handling cd’s or dvd’s they are just bound to get damaged at one point. I wonder if there is a new technology coming out like the mini cd’s but with bigger capacity.
Moving on to dvd formats, I had a problem with a new dvd I bought full of music videos of a band that shall remain nameless, with all the excitement I placed the dvd on the ps2. it came quite clear after the second video that something was wrong, my first assumption was that I had broken my brother’s ps2. after further inspection I found out that my dvd had a different region and that a simple dvd player could not play properly.
