EDITED
hey guys
I'm sorry about this! Shortly after i posted this my computer hard drive blew up. well not really. but it completely fried. so i lost the file. but i got it by downloading a torrent file. so its possible, just so you know!
But I have had very limited use of a computer since then, which explains my lack of being around.

Deepest apologies!

Hey everyone I noticed people have been having trouble finding this in North America. Well, I have an
English version on my computer. Since I have it I figured that I should
help everyone out. You can email me at -deleted email-
saying that you want it. You need to have MSN Messenger, or Live
Messenger. I'll add you and then send it to you over that. It will take
a while (625mb), but probably not as long as it could from somewhere else. If you have an even better way that I could send this... let me know... because I would love for it to go as fast as possible. That would be great. Also I will ONLY send this to people within North America because of the fact that it was never distributed here so no one has it, if you are from Europe you can probably find it somewhere, and I wish you luck! My apologies to those who cannot find it still, I am merely trying to avoid any trouble. Whereas sending to North American citizens, I have the excuse that it is impossible to find here.

peace.

It's currently on YouTube in fuzzy res:

In Europe this works.
It's low-res and over-compressed, but it can be watched - 640*360@30fps for 1 hr 26 mins in 296MB!

I hope it stays up for those who want to see it.
It can be downloaded with VideoDownload Helper.

Torrents for it, in English, Spanish, or German, all seem dead.
Amazon have an advert for an unavailable VHS tape! For the kids, VHS is clockwork from the Stone Age.
I couldn't find it on eBay or even PrimeWire.

Given how cheap some other oldish DVDs are on Amazon (less than three dollars), I was prepared to buy this. Instead I had to download it in fuzzy quality and paid nothing. If a friend stuck a blank DVD in my PC to copy it, I'd turn my back :-)

The film studios are being daft missing out on a steady stream of residual sales no one has to even advertise, e.g. I still want The Lawnmower Man Director's Cut Widescreen, but not in Italian!

The only internet companies with the infrastructure to deal with this mess seem to be Google and Amazon. Google don't seem to be into dealing with film companies, Amazon do it all the time.
Amazon should tell the studios that own all this stuff they're just wasting opportunities. The studios could give Amazon a master and let them duplicate and distribute it. Amazon could approach each studio in turn until one realises.

I don't work for Amazon, but I hope they're reading this.
To any studios reading this: reduce the reboots, re-issue the retro releases.
If either party wants me to help negotiate the deal, I'll do it for a lot less than the going rate.
