    Best CD version of Electric Warrior by T. Rex...

    Looking for best possible digital version. Heard the current remasters are less than stellar. I don't have anything that handles SACD. Could handle DVDA, but I've heard that might be a sham. Confused as some think it is sourced from the same material (is it?) that the SACD is and that seems to...

    Viacom to shed Blockbuster...

    Check it out: http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmp...om_blockbuster And so continues the downward spiral. Thank goodness the studios stood their ground with day and date releases and did away with the horrid "window" model. A big cheers to all of the studios. :)

    How do you classify certain properties of your DVDs?

    It's interesting to see how certain DVD specs/features are interchangeably marketed on the back of DVDs. For instance, would you consider THX certification an extra or technical spec? Or how about close captions? I personally think CCs should always be a technical spec. The THX one, I'm not...

    A simple offer of condolences to our Australian members...

    ***NOTE*** I DO NOT WISH FOR THIS THREAD TO BECOME A BREEDING GROUND FOR POLITICAL RHETORIC. I just wanted to state that I'm deeply saddened by the recent terror attack in Bali. Many people (mostly Australian), simply on vacation, were brutally slain in a nightclub bombing. As I learned...

    Anyone here play Urban Terror?

    Topic header says it all. For those who don't know, Urban Terror (UT) is a total conversion (extensive mod) for Quake 3. Some have compared it to Counter Strike but most say that UT is better. I was playing Jedi Outcast multiplayer and it got tiresome after a while. UT on the other hand is very...

    Article in the Wall Street Journal mentions desire for DVD rental pricing...

    The bits ( www.thedigitalbits.com/#mytwocents ) mentions the article in the WSJ. Surprisingly, not only is Ball Buster pushing for this, but some studios are as well. I was under the impression that the studios were happy with the current pricing model. Does anyone know which studios does this...

    Why do Laser Discs sound consistently better than their DVD counterparts?????

    In light of the the upcoming release of TPM on DVD, and the early reports of the DVD not using the same mix as LD, I find myself asking the eternal question, "Why do Laser Discs sound consistently better than their DVD counterparts?". This seems to be the case with many films released on the...

    Francis Ford Coppola's Dracula SE and Superbits confusion....

    I was under the impression that a SE for this film was in the works. But I have just seen that Dracula is going to be released as a Superbits title. Does this mean that there will be two future DVD releases of the film in the near future, or is there only going to be a Superbits release. I'm a...

    Current Trainspotting DVD: How does it fair?

    Upon hearing that Criterion has no plans for a DVD release of this excellent film, I am considering picking up the current disc that's out there. I know that there are no extras, but I'm more interested in the A/V quality. Also, from what I remember, it's a relatively expensive disc. Does anyone...

    I have finally entered the Age Of Digital Sound.....

    After using an old pro-logic setup for years, I have finally taken my first step into digital surround. Tonight, I purchased the Kenwood HTB-504.
