My first dvd player was a gift, and I believe I saw T2 - Ultimate Edition on it, though I may be wrong. Not sure. It could've been some rental, on the other hand....

ahh yes T2 UE was the first DVD I bought and was the first thing I ever ordered online with amazon... I ended up with three copies of it, two of them free, because I was worried it was lost in the mail

amazon in the good old days

March '98
Boogie Nights
LA Confidential
Amadeus

Note that two of those discs have been redone and upgraded, teaching me my first valuable lesson in DVD : you're going to get screwed repeatedly.

My first was Wishmaster. I was working at a video store, and it was given to the owner. He didn't even own a DVD player, but I had one on my computer. After that, I was hooked.

I got L.A Confidential for free with my player back in 1998. I think Austin Powers was the first one that I bought.

I bought two DVDS when I bought my Samsung player. I believe it was June 20, 2000 or whenever theses discs were released. I'm pretty sure I got them first day.

Fight Club, 2 discer-$19.99
Next Friday-$15.99

At Bes Buy.
