I was only joking ;) I appreciate all the positive input you and everyone else has give me thus far!

I can only imagine, but I would guess the fact that the broadcast versions were distributed on DVD5s would mean they suffer from MPEG2 artefacts as well as medium-low bit rates, not to mention I remember reading somewhere that they had been filtered which means its not a clean capture per se.

To be honest I am a little curious to see how my DVDs will match up to the broadcast versions, if only to see how good a transfer I have achieved. :)
