    I currently have 16 HD-DVDs here, four more on their way, so about 20.

    I was looking to get the Planet Earth box set, but I'm not a massive natural history buff, so it'd be a bit wasted on me.

    Oh, and I had none before they went out of production so it's technically an infinite increase :p

    What happens to the vast collection built up if your player dies?

    I've considered picking them up, but I'm pretty happy with just renting blu-rays at the moment (won't be buying them at current prices). Though it would be nice to get a bit more use from my Tosh EP-30, seeing as I bought it before HD died, and paid as such :duh:

    If the player dies then I'll be a bit screwed, but it's still covered by a 12 month warranty which is exchangable at gamestation or Microsoft and I presume they will still have a lot spare.

    My first one was dead when I bought it, the laser was completely gone, I got a new one and by treating it well (not moving it much not at all with a disc in) and in a cool, dry environment it should survive for an indefinite amount of time.

    I have a megadrive and master system here which both work.I also have a BBC that still works.

    I've been kind to all my equipment and I hope it treats me the same. :)

    i've just been watching a few episides of that today, it's simply epic. that sort of programming always seems to come across best on hd, it makes a nice showcase of why every needs to upgrade.

    btw i wouldnt worry about the player dying, ebay will be littered with standalone and 360 players by now id imagine lol, i might buy a standalone just for kicks

    Do you keep your Megadrive and Master System hooked up to the TV? I've got both consoles in working order can't think of a solution to keep them plugged into the TV without using a complicated arial switch solution.

    Congrats, Supermonkey! The one I ordered is on ship on it's way over from Oxford now. It's a looong wait! I see you ordered the Cooper S? <so jealous> Have you been to the North American Motoring site? It's been keeping me amused, with lots of ideas for aftermarket parts, etc.

    Thanks! Indeed it is the S. It was a toss-up between the hard top and the convertible, and in the end the hard top won out. And now I wait.

    Thanks for the link. I have a feeling it will help pass the time.

    Yup, the only thing I need to resolve is a 4 way audio switchbox.

    I have a 2405FPW so I have:

    360 - VGA
    Mega Drive (master system is a convertor) - Composite
    Wii - Component
    Freeview - S-Video (when I have an aerial :S)

    Works fine atm and I'm using a two way VGA switch for the audio at the moment as it was VGA + audio for each input and the output.
