Daria On DVD: Yet Another Bootleg

So, I received the Daria box set yesterday -- it does indeed contain the eleven discs, but:

  1. By 'Custom Artwork' it means 'The Box Cover' (which does not actually have the MTV logo like the picture on the site, the actual discs themselves are white with a standard logo imprint)
  2. By 'Un-Edited & Commercial Free' it means 'Probably Downloaded from the Internet and Converted to MPEG for use on DVD' (some of the episodes have graphic logos advertising websites i've never heard of at the start, while others have the Tivo logo, some even have PVR capture logos at the start, followed by the PG rating in the top left hand corner).
So, yes -- it's another bootleg, pity.

The search continues, maybe one day MTV will obtain the music rights (or fix whatever other reason exists) and put it on DVD, 26,000 fans with internet connectivity can't be wrong.

Please :)
