Can anyone help me get my head around this? Am I right with the following:
So in early 2000s the MGM DVD of this had the mono track but it was deemed slightly different to the Laserdisc version.
In 2006 the Terminator came to Blu-ray (MPEG-2) without the mono tracks and this annoyed people. Was it not a direct sync with the MGM DVD either?
In about 2012 again the film got put out on Blu-Ray but this time it was a MPEG 4 AVC with much higher bitrate. This is the version people want the mono track for?
The 2001 MGM DVD utilizes the international mono mix rather than the US one
However, outside of the 1991 laserdisc (which contains the US mix), it sounds the best regarding fidelity, all other mono mastering (including the 1995 and 1997 Image releasee) have noise reduction and sound noticeably worse
