Well, compared to the BU disc it actually DOES look a bit like an MKV rip. The same with the Arrow disc of "City of the Living dead". The Arrow discs always have much more problems with artifacts compared to the BU discs of the same movie/transfers.

BUT, don´t get me wrong here, the Arrow discs still look good.

Most of you might not care, but for us with bigger screens/projectors, having artifacts dancing around on the screen IS very distracting.
It shouldn´t need to look like a MKV rip.
It's not all recent releases that have such low bitrates. Forbidden Zone has about 30mbps on the colour and 25mbps on the b+W version.

You really need to start ordering stuff from HMV, you'll get them even before the release date

You also tend to get things before they are released if you order directly from Arrow, but no Quidco cashback or Pure Points though.

You should try one the HMV stores, mate - I was in my local one yesterday and they had loads out and they were only £15.

I use Play a lot Reaps - well happy with their service. A lot of discs shipped before their release date.

For example my BFI BDs of The Black Panther and Nightbirds ( due for release next Monday ) are already on their way
