But oh yes you do, just they compare film to DVD. Then you get them comparing video formats also, VHS is below what many of them would even consider as there are so many video formats out there. I worked for a special effects company for a bit and the engineers there were some of the most "odd" (probably not the right word) people I had ever met. Some of them installed broadcast quality systems in their houses to just watch video. Although I supposed they were not quite as anal as music types....
