I was wondering if I could ask a favor. I live in the US and I was looking for someone to capture a few upcoming things for me in the UK (as well as France and Italy). Anyone able to help me out?

What shows are they? If a show is popular enough, a tv rip will be uploaded to torrents within a weak.

I'm not looking for TV rips. I'm looking for well done captures ;) Everything you find on torrents looks like crap with reduced re-encodes :(

You didn't answer my question. What do you want recorded?

 Really?  What sites have you been using?  my internet connection is not fast enough for amazon video to work with but Utorrent works fine so some times when my time recorder screws up I buy the episode on amazon but download it off of a torrent site and every time I have done it as long as I pay attention to file info and user feedback the episode looks as good as an official release or something I captured myself.

I am really surprised that you can't find good files on a torrent site.

Nothing i see compares to what I capture. Bitrates are, by and large, crap.

So did you find someone who help you out? I also interested in the possibility to record in the UK digital TV broadcast of VIDEODROME - maybe will show "open matte" version.

Maybe for you but for the OP not.

Precisely why I didn't mention what I was interested in. Don't feel like reading the ridicule.

I actually found someone that can do the ITV ones. Now I'm on to the other 2.

I own a Madonna CD, The Immaculate Collection.  She did some decent stuff before the turn of the century.

Hell, I even gave her a ringtone ("Material Girl") in The Ridiculous Menace.

True, in fact I'd put 'Like A Prayer' up there with Shakespeare and Beethoven. That reminds me, I haven't listened to that track the usual 50 times this week.

 Papa Don't Preach >>>>> Like a Prayer.    In fact almost everything by her before 1989 is better than Like a Prayer.

Wow. I'd heartily disagree. As a die-hard fan, LAP is still my #1. It's still a brilliant song.

Agreed, Like a Prayer is amazing.

 See how easy it is to "fix" something and end up sounding dumb?

Unless I've guessed right, of course.
