"This spare, art-free site deserves mention for one reason only: It's home to
the Web's most current and complete DVD FAQ. Maintained by minor tech legend Jim
Taylor, it's not your typical FAQ. Outside of The Starr Report, it just
might be the most thorough document known to man--though hardly as prurient."

Michael Yessis, E! Online
"Your construction and maintenance of the DVD FAQ is a shining example of the

Thank you thank you thank you."

the DVD FAQ. It helped me solve a key question involving which format (NTSC,
PAL, or both) to choose when mastering a project I'm working on for worldwide
DVD distribution. It's a great FAQ. I've written several FAQs myself, including
one the same length of the DVD FAQ, but yours is a work of perfection."
