The current CDs of the Beatles albums were released in 1987. Next year they will be 20 years old. Anyone know if Apple is going to release newly remastered versions in 2007?

On Seinfeld season 6, the Inside Look featurette for The Kiss Hello starts out with a title screen indicating "The Kiss Hello" but the content of the featurette is actually about Highlights of 100. Did anyone else notice this?

We all know how strong DVD sales resurrected Family Guy. Has TV-on-DVD affected TV programming in any other ways? Will it affect programming in the future? Unlike the cinema, there is little or no room for niche shows that have a small but dedicated followings (Arrested Development), but could...

Visions of Light was one of the first DVDs I bought, back in 1999. Its non-anamorphic, and the some of the film clips don't look very good. I'd like to see a remastered version someday, with anamorphic video (1.37:1 clips windowboxed) and with better quality clips, since many of the films...

Does Fox have plans to reissue the 2-disc SE of Patton?

I recently won a used R2 Ultimate Toy Box from eBay. I just assumed that everything from the R1 edition would be ported over, but its missing a few things on the first 2 discs. The commentaries, 5.1 effects-only tracks, Toy Story Treats, and Buzz and Woody on set interviews are replaced by DD...

I've seen some cheap listings of the 11-disc Art of Buster Keaton box set from China. One listing I've seen has a Kino logo and some Chinese writing while another has cover art like the Warner/MK2 Chaplin titles and is from a company called Bo Ying. I won't buy bootlegs, are these legit?

After wininet.dll and shlwapi.dll went missing from my computer, I downloaded them but I don't know where to put them. Where do I put them?

I have this compulsion to take some nice black and white photos of my girlfriend and her apartment won't do :) so I was wondering what some nice looking places in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area are. I'm open to any suggestions, it doesn't necessarily have to be a flower garden or something.

I notice a problem on my TV sometimes, usually on black and white material or if there is a large light colored blank space in the picture. I sometimes see a slight greenish tint to the picture that last a second or two. Could this be caused by having the stereo speakers too close to the TV or...
