„In 1998 I had the money to blow so I went out and got a player before the format even took a firm hold on society. Over the years, my Panasonic DVD-A105 has shown hundreds of hours of DVD video in high quality without a ton of bells and whistles like some of the new models that come out.

The idea is to have a homegrown standard to avoid paying royalties to non-Chinese electronics congolomerates that developed the DVD. Which certainly makes some economic sense if you're a manufacturer, but why a consumer would choose an EVD player over a DVD player is somewhat less clear.“http://www.stargeek.com/item/30276.html - Cached
