Indeed, personal choice is everything. Which is why it's a shame more and more studios are locking away versions of their movies (such as 3D, IMAX etc) either exclusively on bad platforms like streaming, or in the case of 3D more often than not, just not releasing them in the home at all. It's an affront to the artistry involved that these videos just sit on a studio's hard drives somewhere, gathering dust.

Sometimes I feel like the bane of any hobby is that when you get really involved in it, it naturally starts to affect your enjoyment. In the case of movies at home, I feel like people that are happy with DVD or streaming, don't pixel peep or lose hairs over sharpening, are indifferent to aspect ratios and colour timing etc, are like Cypher in The Matrix. They're technically not getting the full experience but they're happier overall. Ignorance is bliss as they say.
