Is the audio on the Laserdiscs any better than the original 2.0 mixes of the series or FWWM on the Blu-rays?

English Dolby Digital 2.0 stereo

It’s lossy on the Blu-ray discs. Maybe the Laserdiscs use PCM? Only the 5.1 track is lossless.

Hi, anyone know if the FWWM LD or Criterion blu-ray is good or how they compare?

The FWWM LD has digital surround sound and the Criterion blu-ray has DTS-HD MA 2.0.
