I have purchased four sets. Two were donated to hospital-type places where people needed something to watch while the medical ghouls did arcane things to their blood.
One was donated to a down-on-her-bucks friend.
One is mine.
Mine,
dagnabit. Back the fuck off
my
DVDs!
What reequeen said.
Go,
DVD stinginess!
Wait. Reequeen may not have said that.
Well, I did loan mine. To a family member. Who owes me bigtime, for various things. And only one disc at a time. He didn't get through the second disc before he went out and bought his own.

Genetics. Blood will tell.

OK, sometimes it is better to place some constraints on your trust in genetics. There are, after all, FF DVD's at issue here.
Just last weekend, I overheard my brother telling my dad about "this great show that was cancelled" and then my brother went on the explain the scene from Train Job where Bad Guy 1 goes through the engine and then Bad Guy 2 gives Mal no trouble at all.
I was floored because it was the first time I'd ever heard Firefly discussed by someone who wasn't part of fandom. I made sure to pimp the movie while I was there.
Whoa, you mean other people watch the show? Cool!
No one should be forced to go without Firefly, that's all I'm sayin'.
You are not wrong.
Aww, y'all are so sweet with the support. I probably am buying myself a new player this weekend. Though I'm leery of the cheap-ass ones, as, well, that's what I have now, bad Japanese translations and all.
We've had our cheap-butt player for a couple of years, so figure doing pretty well for the investment (almost as good as we did on the free one).
bad Japanese translations and all.
You mean the ones translated via Finnish? ;-D
I have earned many toasters by loaning out my dvds. Just sent them off today to a FOAF who is on mandatory pregnancy-related bedrest. She gets 20 minutes a day vertical, so I figure some wacky hijinks with the Firefly crowd will come in useful.
