'sign 'o' the times' DVD totall ripp-off!!!!

just checked my new 'sign 'o' the times' DVD. the quality is totally crapp!
the sound is somewhat better than the video -but hey, couldn't get much worse- the music is still pitched upwards 6% (WHY???) and the 5.1-surround mode is a laugh!

colours are allright, but a LOT of 'dropouts' on the screen, looks like a laserdisc copy to me.

what do you think??? eek

They are at best *questionable* official in the smaller territories they were released in.

You buy unofficial without reading up on it first, you takes your chances.

Hello !! it's in EVERY store in Holland, believe me, that won't happen if it was concerned a bootleg. just check www.videofilmexpress.nl , it's on sale for the benelux, officially, although i wonder for how long, could well be they forgot to inform somebody....

Well, I like the cover if nothing else. I might actually order this. Does any Dutch DVD website ship to the U.K.?
