I figured as much. I wish I had bought a bunch of LDs when I was 8 or 9 when DVD had started moving in. ;)

I do think the PCM is worth preserving and it is a goal of mine once I can get a good equipment chain together to utilize these and the necessary video to combine with SE footage. Ideally for something like a fully cleaned up DJ-U2 GOUT project. The 5.1 tracks are all from the late LD releases or the canceled ones (FYEO for example). I have no idea how the THX LDs compare to the earlier issues besides cleaner video perhaps. (Spy and Moonraker need it.)

Yes LALD has a few minutes of audio dropout but the digital track is supposedly errored and actually has the film's complete isolated score and the mono complete soundtrack switched to the analog tracks.

Golden Gun is the rarest of the series and looks quite good. TLD is the best mastered for picture and sound and AVTAK has killer audio.

I was always holding out for all three SE boxes since the few errors were supposedly fixed, but did we ever confirm that that was actually true? If not I can start getting the 18 I need. And I already have 71! different Bond video issues.

Not obsessed.
