For some reason, Warner Australia seem to continually churning out MORE NTSC DVDs to the Australian PAL DVD Market.
And For their October/November DVD Release Schedule, V: The
Mini Series AND The Goonies!!! are said to be NTSC Region
4 Transfers!!!!!!
Personally i DO NOT agree with their Decision for ANY NTSC
Region 4 DVDs, as Australia is a PAL territory afterall, and PAL is a superior Video Format. While Warner are only releasing a "select" number of titles in the NTSC format, it seems to be growing with every month's new batch of DVDs. We have been told that at some point down the track, "some" of these NTSC DVDs will get re-released in PAL (though you're looking at quite some time down the track, given it's taken around 1 year for the FIRST Region 4 NTSC DVD from Warner, Romeo Must Die, to get a PAL re-release).
At any rate, we've created a POLL which we would like for you to take part in, to see what region 4 DVDer's think of Warner Releasing NTSC DVDs to our PAL Marketplace. Once we've gathered enough data, we'll be sending it over to Warner as an FYI.[/quote]
Very stupid from WARNER Australia and strange since there will not be any WARNER R2 NTSC Titles in Europe (...or so I hope)!
What the purpose of this is supposed to be is beyond me especially for WARNER because their PAL releases in the last time have been better (videowise) than their R1 releases.
I usually buy WARNER Titles here in R2 but I do have lots of Australian R4 titles and would hate so see this happen to more titles there!
