Wasn't the poor compression on The Quiet Man fixed for its Signature release?

It's better, but the UK disc still has it beat.

You can add the audio being mono instead of stereo as well. The German disc fixes that issue as well.

There's a long list of Olive titles that has been bitten by the stereo-turned-to-mono bug. "Stone Cold" is one of them, had to get the German release to remedy that.

There's barely any difference, if any, between the MoC UK and Olive Signature encodes for The Quiet Man despite a slightly higher bitrate on MoC. Olive still has the edge with a few more featurettes/interviews and a commentary.

I'd list both Olive Signature and MoC as options, at least.

More mono titles- Fatal Beauty and Cheech & Chong’s Corsican Brothers. Someone there definitely needs to be fired.

Fatal Instinct has some music replacements which are intact on the commentary track. I heard they actually redid that one?

Irreconcilable Differences has the worst compression I’ve ever seen on a Blu-ray Disc. Dragonfly Squadron is pretty bad too in both 3D and 2D.
