I looked into getting into LDs a few years ago, and decided not to due to the disc rot issue, and that even with upscaling, the picture would be not be comparable to DVDs. Decades ago we had a RCA Selectavision player, which is what The Great Escape disc was on one of your pictures. It was actually an analog system (much like a music record) that used a stylus. I have many memories of that system and was also looking to get the system again, however it would be even more further from the DVD experience and most of the movies were pan and scan.
Besides, aren't DVDs now almost considered "vintage"?
