I should add to my original query that I use an Infocus SP4805 DLP video projector which throws a widescreen image about 78" across on my bedroom wall, using component inputs, so I guess I need all the detail/resolution etc that I can get, which I suppose means the PAL version then by a narrow margin. Just wish I could get used to the speeded up sound though after being used to the 'Faces' LDs for years. Then again if it's proved at some point within the next few days there's barely a difference in picture quality between the two then I think I'll plump for the NTSC editions for the correct running speed.
Moth3r - perhaps you are right about it not being pitch corrected... it sounds correct, but obviously a little faster... haha! If I hadn't been so used to the 'Faces' LD for years I guess I wouldn't have even noticed.
