Hehe, me too! :D

No seriously, you`ll only notice a real difference if you have a big cinema system to play with - huge TV, powerful DTS surround etc.

That said, SuperBit discs are relatively cheap these days, often more so than the regular versions, so you might as well go for it.

I have the above on Superbit and yes it does make a difference. I have a 44" RP tv and the picture is pinsharp. Running dvd through QED Scart (excellent scart lead) Sound through pioneer amp and yamaha power amps. Sound is awsome @ 768 kbs. Cheap as chips @ £10 each or cheaper off ebay.

It only makes a difference because Columbia`s `standard` transfers are so crushingly average to begin with. If they did a decent job in the first place there would be no need for `Superbit` titles. It`s a marketing gimmick, nothing else.

And it seems to have done it`s job on some folks!!

Perhaps some people should get out copies of their old VHS films and check the difference between them and the earlier DVD releases. Big difference but not that big compared to a lot of today`s releases which are generally superb (admittedly not all!).
