Hi,

Apart from anything else, the quality is inferior.  Have you heard some of the 
AD given by Serotek?  it sounds like someone was sitting in the cinema 
recording it with a cheap mic.  I prefer to ahve the commercial offerings any 
day.

All the best

Steve

Does it matter? If the studios aren't prepared to give us films that
we can access, why should we prepared to give them our money?
