Re: FYI

I bought it from Amazon.com.

The NTSC version shows the typical effects of conversion from PAL to NTSC (some blurriness, stairstepping, that kind of stuff). I don't think it's awful; OTOH it's not fantastic either.

When it comes to European releases, in most cases the PAL version is better, IF you have a display AND a DVD player that are PAL-capable. If you're doing a conversion anywhere (i.e. PAL-to-NTSC disc, or a PAL-capable player converting to NTSC for an NTSC-only TV) you're not going to get the benefits of a straight-through PAL path anyway.
