This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Huh. I grew up with laserdiscs and never knew it was an analogue recording and not a digital one.

That explains some things for me.

I never had one but they had them at school. Thought they were the coolest thing ever and also assumed digital because CDs were starting to become popular.
