I prefer the Blu-ray in the vast majority of scenes as well, but the WOWOW does have its strengths... especially in the jungle and when they lift the ark out of its tomb... the golden glow is just right on the WOWOW during that sequence.  Also, that last shot in the warehouse (matte painting) has the shadows a little more correct in the WOWOW.  The Blu-ray brightens that warehouse up a little too much and it loses some of its mystery.  Faces do lean towards the red hue in the WOWOW though and that's one area where the Blu-ray definitely trumps WOWOW.  They both have pros and cons but I'm glad I grabbed the WOWOW.  If anyone is curious, just do a free 5 day no risk trial with usenet.net and the only other thing you need is SABnzbd.  There's a simple tutorial on YT that answers all your questions.  Simple, fast and I had no problems at all.
