Picture/sound quality for me were the same for both (and I'd have certainly noticed LP quality). I didn't have the time to make it to the end, though the seriously boring production didn't help either. But I liked Finley a lot.SSnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8851616.post-71831997495624134222011-07-01T11:35:38.221-04:002011-07-01T11:35:38.221-04:00I totally agree with what Andrew says in the above...I totally agree with what Andrew says in the above. (I thought I was the only one having this problem.) But the production is so engrossing that I have endured the LP quality of the replay several times since the live broadcast last Sunday. Yeah, I am glad I can indulge in this sort of hoopla during my summer break. ^^Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8851616.post-22474371174994450092011-07-01T07:27:34.324-04:002011-07-01T07:27:34.324-04:00I was quite disappointed by the technical quality ...I was quite disappointed by the technical quality of the Guardian's Glyndebourne replay; if five hours of very compressed picture and sound doesn't bother you, then you might last longer than I did. It's odd, because the bits of the live relay I saw were of a much higher streaming quality and there was the option of select from three different bandwidth versions. It's a terrific endeavour on the part of Glyndebourne and the Guardian, but I couldn't help thinking that the low standard of their replay video let the whole thing down. I think I'd rather wait for the DVD.Andrewhttp://devilstrillblog.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8851616.post-79413188702510020682011-07-01T02:23:57.814-04:002011-07-01T02:23:57.814-04:00This is fantastic Zerbinetta!
