A few weeks ago, I purchased the Jaws "Anniversary Edition" DVD with the silver stripes on the top and bottom of the box cover, proclaiming it was Universal's Widescreen version; however, I had a feeling there was another version of this film with a DTS soundtrack, and like an idiot, bought the standard Anniversary Edition with a simple Dolby Digital soundtrack that sounds like ass; there is an OCCASIONAL surround effect or two; the rest of the sound is caught in the ENTIRE FRONT soundstage. Does anyone have the Jaws DTS version, and is it phenomenally better on audio?
