I won't - I will still be keeping the original source material, It'll just
be stored out of the way somewhere (in the loft probably), I will use the
ripped copy for casual watching. Also, I will still be purchasing all the
new episodes as they are relaeased - If they ever switch to making them
available on DVD, then I will get them in that format, but for now, it
looks
like VHS is set to continue to be the only option. This is primarily a
space-saving excercise (physical, not disk!) - my living room is getting
overrun with tapes!
