You are not thinking of the future. Natural wood from trees will only
be for cleaning the air and environment . Cutting down and using wood
from a tree will be a crime against humanity and punishible by death in
the near future. DVD and 3D entertainment systems will only exist in
museums . Hence wood terrorists will be the next news. Building
furniture will be performed telepathecally on artificial intelligent
machines using wood composites which will look like feel and smell like
wood.
And oh! by the way we will all be in that woodworking shop in the sky
reliving the old days or in that woodburning stove below if you believe
in it.

Heh! I suspect that a great many of us will be in that big workshop in the
sky by then.

They come in a "fitted case" too. I wonder if Norm makes and fits the case
to each DVD. How much variation is there in DVDs that each case must be
fitted?

Some of us hope to be enjoying a quiet, woodworking filled retirement
about then, (Lord willing).

You assume of course that DVD players will be available in 30 years.
More likely some new format based upon quantum storage or 3D holographic
storage will become the new standard. ... and of course with all the
digital copyright protections, your existing investment will be toast
