Why such harsh responses to ScruffyNerfHerder's idea? It was clearly just a rough draft suggestion offered as a possible solution to the 8 audio track limitations Harmy's encountered. I think he clearly understands it's not the ideal arrangement, but it's better than nothing at all.
Hopefully the multiAVCHD lead will produce the results we want. Either way, thanks for providing food for thought, Scruffy.
It don't think I was harsh. Lumping all foreign dubs into a single release without even considering the inclusion of the original audio track is a terrible idea, and his saving space reasoning didn't make any sense. Instead of making everything more comfortable for everyone involved, it achieves the exact opposite: it needlessly complicates the situation, it satisfies only those who don't care for audio tracks other than the original to begin with (this includes the dubs as well as the commentary), and it creates heaps of additional work for Harmy on top of all that. Hence my criticism.
I could've been harsh if I decided to take the lack of English audio in that European release as a personal insult (this IS the Internet, after all), but I decided against it ;)
