Does anyone know the specs on this one?

If it's lossless sound & a good transfer I'll definitely import for the upgrade on sound.

Since it a sony release I will have to go with BD50, AVC and Dolby TrueHD 5.1 since all of their recient releases I have brought to date have been that spec.

I'm waiting to find out if the extras match up.

Wow, nice! Lossless audio = definite upgrade for me. However, with the upcoming release of Terminator: Salvation, you have to wonder if we'll get an American re-release from Warner Bros (who own the rights here in the US) as well.

I think warner will re release it but with a few changes and possibly a few extras.

The Picture Quality I will expect no change (garanteed to use the same encode).

Audio since the first release was Dolby Digital 5.1 so I suppect they will do TrueHD.

I will suppect warner will do a proper Picture In Picture job instead of a seperate encode with it burnt in.

When it comes to actual Warner releases I look to see if someone like disney, paramount, sony or someone else owns the rights.

I was looking at T3 on blu-ray but when I saw sony owned the UK rights and warner owned the US rights I held of the warner release because I know sony will do a much better job then warner will unless they screw it up which will be rare now.

I did the same for beowulf. Warner own the UK rights to beowulf and paramount in the US so I picked up the US edition becasue paramount did a better job.

Rule of thumb for me is if warner own the world wide rights then I am stuck and get the cheapest avilable. If they don't and its done by another studio like sony they will more and likely do a far better job so I will purchess from them Unless they screw it up which has been a bit rare for them.
