Yeah, yeah, yeah, "can" but often don't. Did you read the whole
thread? This guy while questioning the whole purpose of the Brakhage
DVD was fascinated by "Blue Shut" as seen on youtube in black and
white. He didn't even know the film is in color. You buy a DVD that's
well produced and you're getting something as close to correct as
possible. Watch random things on the 'Net and unless you know the work
already from a print, you don't know what you're getting.
