Thank you so much for sharing that! I've been watching my poor old VHS recording for years.

The first 15 seconds of this song are the best example to debunk the "LP sounds better" myth. All LP recordings were unable to get the frequency response of the synth and it's extremely noticeable. Tape, LD, and CD do sound better than the LP of this song.

that is interesting, I didn't notice that. thank you

When Ainalem Tebeje spoke... that was the saddest part.

[@WilliamChow]

Wow. that was a powerful moment.

"the Japanese had digital LDs!" LaserDisc is not digital. It's just as analog as VHS and CED.

[@williamchow3143]

Yes the video data on the LD is from an analog source and is resequenced as analog but the pits and dips on the LD surface are your 0's and 1's which survived the 30 years of time way better than the magnetic charges on a VHS cassette tape. Hence, the notable improvement of the video quality as you see it in this revised version of the video.

[@Tempora158]

"pits and dips on the LD surface are your 0's and 1's " This is completely wrong; the pits and dips on the LD surface are NOT 0's and 1's because LaserDisc do not store video data in binary. The pits on an LD are of varying length and spacing that directly correspond to an analog waveform, not binary. That's why you can get tracking issues on an LD just like any other analog video medium, whereas the video is either there or it's not from a digital medium like DVD or OTA ATSC. It's not the "digital" or "analog" that determines the survival of the recording, it's the material of the medium. A metal master of an analog record will likely to survive intact than a digital CD-R.

True enough. It boils down to how does the Japanese make laser discs for a Canadian content program while we ended up getting VHS tapes for our own content. So long lost (see episode 3), the CBC ended up resorting using my You tube clip. Ironic...
