Sorry have not responded until now. In general, I save money on DVD's by watching YouTube. I am afraid (translate=delighted) that the days of "buying" things seem to be becoming passe. The internet is an incredible cornucopia of free stuff. Free programs, free movies, free reading material. You might not get the best of the best. I'm sure Professor Smith's five volume history of The Battle of Jutland is far superior to Wikepedia, but Wikepedia can tell me all the essentials--in fine detail, and costs nothing compared to the $100 dollars for Smith's opus.
And I am...how to put this?...almost without financial resources of any kind.
