best example try out the fifth element(first release) and then the remastered which is rerelease months after all the complaints from the end users.(like myself)same goes wth xxx which is still waiting for a remastered to happen.

like se7en.what i found out.

oic you are mistaken. I was referring to ANIMATION. They are not film based so there is nothing to EE or DNR or reconstruct. This will be the same issue with LOTR trilogy because they use a lot of 2k CGI which has no actual film.

OLDER animation you may be able to improve it with different palates or classic disneys which are actually in film. These I would consider as remastering and eye candy.

Re-release??? How do you improve on a recent animation???? You can't DNR or EE anyway

Single title at JB is around RM 25, and if buy 5 titles  = RM 100. No box set yet at the moment.
Sorry for the naive question but at those prices for originals then why buy amazon? Singapore deal still at s$60 for 2 so still make sense.

Another question: What's the diff between LPCM and lossless codec huh? Which do you use when u have options in your BD or it depends on whether you have 2.1,5.1 or 7.1?

LPCM is the uncompressed audio. This should have the best audio quality.

DTS-HD Master and Dolby TrueHD is compressed audio, but is lossless. So in theory the audio quality same as LPCM.
Thanks much. Excuse me if this is a bit off topic but the quality will still depend on the sampling rate of LPCM, DTS-HD and Dolby TrueHD or is that standardised and understood?

i think it is not any cheaper to buy from AMZ UK than AMZ US, right ?
That's been my puzzle all this time... why bother checking whether UK is region free. But some box sets are cheaper sometimes.

The FX rate depends on when you did the transaction also... and plus 1-3% above published rate, depending on which bank's credit card. GBP 30 day ave is 4.818 and USD is 3.0784
