Hi Kirk
I agree it is a bit silly still having 2 formats in the days of globalization, there should be just one format with both the highest aspect ratio & the highest frame rate. [Also DVDs should be 'region free', but that's another subject]
From what I've read nearly all PAL players can play both formats, but very few NTSC players can PAL format. So if lots of people want to see it on their DVD players it might be better to put it in NTSC even though there may be a slight reduction in quality, that way everyone can see it on their players &/or computers.

Personally I don't mind as both my PAL player & computer play both.
By the way will you be having a package deal where you can buy this along with the
PT combo so that frugal people like me can save a few cents on postage & credit card conversion fees? (As opposed to making 2 transactions)

PS. I have just remembered that my DVD player has a zoom feature & a variable speed thing-a-me-jig (technical term
). So I would definitely use my player.
