Just read this thread for the first time. Interested to see Rik's comparitive review of 7 NTSC transfers. I must agree that on 4:3, Cowclops v1 beats Cowclops v2 - haven't checked them all out on 16:9 yet. IMHO, on 4:3, it's extremely close between Cowclops v1 and EditDroid for picture, the main differences being higher saturation/contrast in the former. It really comes down to your personal taste, just like the sound mix (turn it up for EditDroid). None of the others compare to these two (on 4:3).
