It doesn't matter, this isn't Star Wars coming to blu-ray anyway, just a badly played cover. ;)

I agree with both of you, zombie and Moth3r. Many mono films were definitely not played through just one speaker in the cinema, but the thing with Dolby Digital 1.0 Mono tracks is, if you spread that out to several speakers in your modern home theater set-up, you can get a sort of unnatural sound where the dialogue in particular is hard to locate, almost like your speakers wasn't phased correctly.
