>Why would a machine like that even be necessary? You can still only play one DVD at a time.
There were Compact Disc players like this for playing music.
You could set the player to play a disc repeatedly, or to play one disc, then the next, etc.
you could usually also set the machine to shuffle play, not only the music on the disc, but to also shuffle tracks between different discs.
The manufacturer would have just taken the player made for Compact Discs, in which all the mechanics of loading and switching discs had been figured out, and switch the player system from Compact Discs to DVDs.
The DVD player would have also been able to, and used for, playing Compact discs, by a lot of owners.
There are other advantages.
You could lock the player in a cabinet, and just let people play movies using the remote control, without the people being able to easily steal your DVDs, which used to be an issue sometimes.
The same goes for music CDs, which could cost $20 or more, or way more for classical CDs.
Having all the discs preloaded also would prevent kids from handling the discs and scratching them.
A friend had one of these brand new when I was in college. He only ever had >10 CDs in it, and never listened to it.
We jammed to the Weather Channel smooth jazz when we got high instead. >zoomies will never know that feel
I only remember there being one with 5 disc's and I thought that was the coolest thing I've ever seen. I also remember dvd players would sometimes randomly scratch your discs. Sometimes I'd put that shit in and they'd come out with a little scratch.
You would still have your collection
lol i remember, shitty dvd players would just break

It shreds the dvd to extract its movie fibers
Don't be ridiculous.
Wow, that's a steal.
thats why they would call it "ripping" a dvd
Why would a machine like that even be necessary? You can still only play one DVD at a time.
Wrong.
I wish TV Fairy would visit me. I need a CRT television.

Why on earth would you ever invite someone into your home who you would worry about stealing and let them be in a position to do so?
It probably needs a new belt. I've made that repair on their 400 CD changer. It can be done without removing all the discs from the carousel.
You are talking to capeshitters, mechanical aptitude is a foreign concept.

What do you do when you have a double-sided DVD?
This seems like more trouble than it's worth, honestly.
How often are people watching the pan-and-scan side these days?
SNIPPING TOOL YOU FRICKING FRICK. IT COMES FREE WITH YOUR COMPUTER.
This is the shit joel would install during a windows destruction stream
