I'd like to know whether anyone prefers to watch the toons and other stuff online or on DVD/iTunes. Personally I like to watch and listen to the DVD versions because the sound is very life-like and kinda enhanced if you know what I mean.

You mean better quality... yeah. that's cause it's more compressed on the website. so they don't use too much bandwidth. Why would you rather the low-quality versions?

I like DVD's best.

I already own a few films on that format. So it works best for me.

I agree: DVDs have the best quality.

DVDs are nice. I didn't realize this until I broke out some of my old cassette tapes. Actually, they're not that old, only perhaps two years, but that's enough to see a difference.

Of course. As Damik stated above, when you listen to music on the internet, it's usually compressed or in a compressed format to lower the price of bandwidth, so of course you'd pick DVD. Although listening to music on the internet may be more accessible and convenient, there's no doubt about the quality of DVD's being better.

I've been using the DVDs lately. Usually I only use the DVDs for commentary or watching the SBEmails all in a row. But sometimes I use the Internets. So I won't answer this one.

Dvd, naturally. The sound in the flash-files is reeaally compressed and low quality.

I'll go with the flow and go with the DVD sound. It's kinda obvious why, because of what everyone above me stated.
