Well, I tend to disagree with you on the overall quality thing with FX. While FX has nicer packaging most of the time, MAC releases tend to suffer less pixelation problems and macroblocking than FX. This could be partially due to FX's occasional inability to limit the number of episodes per DVD.

I don't know about that, but I don't think so. I don't think the MAC version nor the FX version has the OVA you're talking about.

Yeah. Overall I still think FX is the best out of the bunch, but recently they've been rather hit-or-miss. Some of their new releases are fantastic in every aspect, while others retain the great presentation but the video quality suffers. Awhile back, they weren't like that. I hope things get back on track soon.

No, there's no such thing as an English track for SDF Macross, since it was never dubbed. You won't even notice, trust me.

Is Macross Tv like the first part of the story and is standalone meaning you dont need to see anything else before watching it?

I think alot of us have .Hack already but it still is a wonderful title. As far as Banner goes, I own Crest of The Stars if Banner is identical alittle to dry for my tastes

Great !
and apparently from the review in this site it doesn't suffer from the Interlacing problems of Chobits or SDK

Check the reviews in this website...some people complain about SDK and Chobis and call it pixealation, other say it's interlacing problems
Apparently in some players (i don't know why) they aren't visible or noticeable ...but in some players it seems to pixealate/Interlace in fast action scenes
