Given i'm staring redundancy in the face its plain common sense, especially as what I've seen suggests very little difference in the AV quality. I find devotion to labels a bit weird, I wouldn't buy shock treament because I don't like the film, some would merely because it has arrow on it. Blind hatred of a label seems just as weird however. |
The thing is, 88 licensed the master from CO so the rule is always buy local first and foremost. CO still got their money from your purchase. It's hardly 88's fault if CO further tweaked before putting out their release is it?
Disclaimer, I'm not an 88 fanboy (far from it in fact) i'm just being realistic
