My gripe with DVDs is simplier. No fast forward! Or rewind, for that matter.

What kind of dvd player do you have? Most players do have a kind of fast forward or rewind, although it's not quite like a VCR machine. I got 2 dvd players and a PS2. Both of the regular players have a fast forward, and although I haven't really tried it, I think both of them have a reverse. I know on the PS2, that you can skip back and forth between chapters (I know, because I watch my 3 year old do it all the time when he's watching a movie). I wouldn't go back to a vcr for anything, even though I do have a tv/vcr combo and a dvd/vcr combo. My wife can buy tapes for my kid. I'll hold out for the dvd's.
