Is the movie being released on DVD in the US? I heard it was tied up in legal issues.

Interestingly, I just found that the movie was apparently released on laserdisc - and in NTSC format - in Hong Kong!

LDDb doesn't have this listed, but does list five PAL UK LDs and two US NTSC releases. Not sure if there's anything worth preserving there - some stories are presented as broadcast episodes, some are condensed "movie" versions. The NTSC "Day of the Daleks" features a demo of the Chace Surround system - something I'd never heard of but apparently a way of upmixing mono audio to surround sound.
