But I maintain the best official retail version you can get is the 2006 dvd. (or 2008 box set, it's the same discs from 2006 into thinner cases.) It is by far the best single pre 1997 source you can find and is way better than the 1993-95 laserdiscs or vhs can output.
…except for the sound. The LPCM soundtracks on the laserdiscs sound much, much better than the anemic Dolby Digital track on the DVDs.
This is not true, the audio tracks on the DVDs are the same mixes as those on the 1993 Definitive Collection & Faces laserdiscs.
Edit: or are you saying that the laserdisc is better because it's uncompressed while the DVD is AC3? If so, I wouldn't say the laserdiscs are "much, much better", most people would not be able to tell the difference.
