Regions are just a way to make things easier on the base user... not everyone does wish for the original file to be tampered with...
These are original encodes after all... hence the large file size... There should be info provided on the NFO as to the location of the Sleeve and DVD art should you need them.
Though speed wise I do prefer Matroska video files... far easier to upload
The question simply asks whether the preference is for the file to be converted or left in it's original state as written by the manufacturer.
I do not use Nero Burning Rom to write, or image my media, I use Ultra ISO and DVD Idle Pro... and occasionally Universal extractor for any compression / extraction needs.
I use ultra edit to manually incorporate self written fan subs, in any soft sub format should that be requested specifically by a number of users.
The offer to provide alternative versions of the files in seperate torrents gives you all a choice as to the nature and quality of the files you recieve.
Also the double post was a mistake due to the problems with the site recently.... seorang pointed this out also ..
Please accept my apologies...
Thanks for your comments ... it is nice to see interest and valued opinions
