What no DTS?! Could have easily fit onto the DVD-R (that is if it was even on the retail).

Great release! It was the best possible job you can have. Personally I am buying this movie in May, so this is a temp to hold me over. 154 minute movie (I thought it was 144 though) on a DVD-R, too tight of a fit anyways.

Even if you HATE Cruise, give this movie a shot. I hate his guts and I enjoyed this movie. I know alot of people that won't watch this movie cuz of him (well, it didn't help that the movie trailer was really gay/cheezy too).

7.5/10 Video - Well, that's life. You want the 10/10, buy it
10/10 DVD-R - Perfect release. Nice job.

Hmm relatively low bitrate but looks better than most dvdrs released lately based on sample, movie seems bad-ass, great release! Time to queue another download for the weekend.

The release looks good because the original must be super good bitrate with very few compression flaws. This way the downsample doesn't have to re-encode those flaws on the original making them larger flaws (and hence more noticeable).

The worst is when the release can't fit on the DVD-R by only 20 megs, that already means you have a pretty bad retail to work with

Sweet release! Everyone should enjoy this one!

Yeah WB doesn't do DTS so it's not on the retail disc and therefore not on the DVD-R.

the bitrate is already low, with DTS it would be super low and super crappy video quality.

It was a joke

I consider myself a crusader against DTS on DVD-R unless it fits with untouched video

Sorry for the confusion

hehe
