At this point it seems like the quality of the movies themselves are pretty similar. I went for the anamorphic set because (a) it was a free download, (b) it's got the extra "commentary" tracks, and (c) my television, while not a widescreen set, can do anamorphic squeeze.

If you're not interested in the faux commentary tracks, I would basically go for whichever set matches your tv. The anamorphic discs on a non-anamorphic tv will look softer than the TR47 would, and most widescreen tvs won't blow up the non-anamorphic TR47 discs as clearly as the others.

That said, myself and many others I'm sure will just want to upgrade again if and when TR47 redoes the set on dual layer dvdrs. Higher quality LaserDisc Player, anamorphic picture, pcm sound, commentary, higher bitrates. [Insert Homer-esque drooling noise here].
