by panorama and it is 16:9 (1.85 widescreen), but not anamorphic.</EM>

<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">In DVD-speak 16:9 = anamorphic. Yes, I know
it's letterboxed, but that doesn't explain why they didn't use the Japanese DVD
as a source...like the Mainland China bootleg did!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><BR><FONT face="Times New Roman"><EM>you are right, mostly the HK dvds are
in all aspects worse compared to the japanese releases, but they simply cost 1/4
of the region 2 version, in that case<BR>they are quite a good
option.</EM><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">Not when the quality is of many of the
Panorama discs. I've had a couple that I switched off after 5 minutes because
the quality was sooo bad! Also many Universe discs will freeze up in some
players.</FONT></DIV>
