Let me start by saying I do not blame ezydvd for the following. They remain an evergreen "recommend" as far as I'm concerned.
However, for the benefit of motorsport fans.....
While skulking around the ezydvd site a few weeks back "looking to spend" I chanced to put "Bathurst" in the search field.
What luck. Lo and behold, a forthcoming release "Classic Bathurst Crashes" popped up and based on the spec. and relatively low price I bought it.
What bad luck. It's b-b-b-b-b-bare bones re-defined.
Have sent following to ezydvd:
Hi.
First thing - I've bought quite a few DVDs off you guys and always had really good service.
I also don't think the problems with this one were caused by you (I guess you can only publish the information the supplier gives you)
I got this because I'd seen bits of Bathurst on TV here in the UK and thought it would be good.
Unfortunately the site didn't show running time but I thought from the features list:
Animated Menus
Documentaries
Dual Layer Disc
Featurette
Interviews
Scene Selection
that it must be at least a few hours.
Truth is:
it's 44 minutes - a lot of which is repetition
no documentaries (unless the actual content of the clips is what they were referring to)
dual layer? for 44 minutes?
no featurette
no interviews (unless you count the odd words from drivers in the clips)
"menu" key doesn't work when watching the film (not that there's much to go back to :))
Like I say, not blaming you guys but the DVD itself is crap.
I mention this as you may want to have a word with the original supplier and change the site.
Be interested in your comments
Cheers,
