No Doubt that the T-series DVD is much better because the guys and T-Series did a proper FILM to DVD encoding.
Now the idots at BABA USA on the other hand who also legally owned the rights well it looks like they decided to send some one from the company to film the movie with a camera and then MPEG the movie and throw on to DVD and mass produce the DVDs.
Honestly Indian stores should have refused to sell such crap and only stocked the T-Series DVDs.
my two cents.
I watched this Baba DVD two times now and it looks perfectly OK. Better than Eros and as good as any Yash Raj. I was worried because some old DVD's from Baba Traders has been bad, but Musafir looked fine in anamorphic widescreen and a nice heavy soundtrack 5.1. This was one of the better DVD's lately from an Indian US company. The nasty bullshit quoted is just ridiculous. I haven't watched Raincoat yet, but hopefully this will be as good. Just saw Zee's Aitraaz, and it looked fine too, hopefully this trend with better quality will continue. I saw musafir on a 28 inch widescreen TV, can't tell how it looks on a big screen. Usually i'm always mad at retailers and pisspoor Eros, Spark, Asian DVd editions, but it's just plain nasty lying to people about the Musafir release, when these dudes at Baba have made a good release.
I love the film, very entertaining indeed and Sanjay Dutt's just the coolest. Also like his singing, especially the limousine titles number, a rough voice but very suitable for the role he's playing. This film just oozes with sex without any sex really going on. The female voices are natural without the high pitch, that's cool for a change also (but as an european non-indian guy i may miss the cultural knowledge/references to appreciate the female high pitch voices in bollyfilms correctly)
