If I remember correctly, doesn't the UK edition have both the extra features and David Attenborough? I'm not sure if this is the US or UK (I own the US with Attenborough and it doesn't have the extra footage).

AND they discuss things in terms of meters and kilometers instead of feet and miles. Darned base-10 die-hards!

BBC is the original. US version is cut to allow commercials, so you're getting a shorter condensed version with Sigourney narrating. BBC does not have any featurettes and the transfer is NOT noticeably better. If you have never seen the BBC version, you will not notice or mind the missing footage. I watched the Discovery version first, sold it and got the BBC version.

That doesn't bother me as much as saying 100 kilometers and then talk about ounces or miles per hour Stick to one already

Just an fyi for any Toronto HD DVD owners out there...

HD DVD cases @ Canada Computers, $.79

They had a case of them sitting out, no wrapping, so they might be used.
