I downloaded the (huge!) MKV, thanks to zxthehedgehog and Handman. Being a video editor with some compression tools, I compressed it from 22 GB down to 6, with minimal visual loss. I can upload this somewhere if anyone is interested in a more compact version.
Your 6GB version would fit on a DVD9, so that’s nice, but 22GB isn’t really all that big, and honestly it’s pretty necessary to have a file of that size to get all those tiny details, generally. I’d be interested in seeing some screenshot comparisons between the two versions, if you’d be willing to make some.
I can make some tonight. Sure, 22 GB isn’t big for dealing with locally- downloading is another matter. It took me almost a week to download it, and I’m sure there are others who don’t have fast internet that would appreciate a smaller version. If you have a blazing fast connection, then you probably won’t.
