I recently got all my LaserDiscs back from my parents. I'd forgotten how many I have and the prices I used to pay (some still had shop stickers on). Here in the UK, the format didn't really take off.

They're under my bed now in protective storage boxes. No idea what I'm going to do with them. Thinking of getting those vinyl storage frames and putting them on display in rotation.

That'd be quite cool.

And SVCD and AVCHD.

Just go and watch TechMoan on YouTube, there's probably a ton more formats that we've forgotten or never heard of.

I never knew I cared so much about proprietary formats that only existed in a few markets for a few years until I discovered Techmoan.
