Will anyone reply? Or was I right, this is a case of: people not doing the research claimed, trying to inflate prices, or people just want/like low*er*-quality LD audio.

From Lyle_JP on HTF: "I have owned all of them. The 5.1 tracks on discs 2, 3, and 4 are identical (in fact, discs 2 and 3 are identical in every respect). This 5.1 track is also being used for the HD version on Monsters HD. The track on the first, non-anamorphic disc is the only different one, which stays more faithful to the original Ultra*Stereo mix. -Lyle J.P."

And from 'John H Ross' on HTF: "There appears to be four DVD releases:

Original version. Non-anamorphic. No extras. Released July 20, 1999
Anamorphic (apparently). Includes "Halloween 4: Final Cut" documentary. Released October 9, 2001
Anamorphic. Limited edition tin. Includes "Halloween 4: Final Cut" documentary.Released October 1, 2005
Divimax Edition. Anamorphic. Includes "Halloween 4: Final Cut" documentary + cast/crew commentaries, etc.Released July 25, 2006

The HTF thread, if you actually read it, mentions specific audio information, something you failed to do.

The question(s) now are:

Was the 5.1 audio remastered/remixed for the original non-anamorphic Halloween 4 DVD? Or was the Ultra-Stereo *just* decoded to 5.1?
Does the original non-anamorphic Halloween 4 DVD contain a 2.0 track? (I think it has to according to DVD spec.)
If yes to #2 above, is this 2.0 track a simple fold-down from the 5.1 track contained on the same DVD or is it the original Ultra-Stereo track?
How is the Ultra-Stereo track better than audio on any given DVD/Blu-Ray release?

I hope I don't get banned, however more and more I see stuff like this. I don't understand why people aren't doing research, and some even claiming to when they probably didn't.

Thank you and you're welcome!
