: Well, I didn't know the availability of their collection well.

: How about contacting to distributors? Basically they don't sell for individual but if you have a connection or pretend as a company, you may be able to get video copies.

No offense, but don't even bother. I looked over their price list, they charge $16 PER TITLE (IE. per episode), and that is only to LEND it to you. For the entire series, that's over $1200.

If you want a COPY of the material you still need permission from the copyright holder! Then if you get that permission, they charge $110 (for a 30 minute title) to make a copy of the master onto VHS for you. Of course bulk discounts are available, but it will still cost a person about $5000 to get a copy of the entire series.

In other words, unless you are rich, it's not the way to get your hands on a copy of the series! ;)

Savant
