Versions of TWW on VH-1: Confusion reigns!

There now seems to be several different versions of the video for
"This Woman's Work" showing on VH-1.  As I posted yesterday, until
Sunday the only version they played had severe static problems for
five to ten seconds near the beginning -- just as Kate comes out of the
guy's body.  This video was labeled as follows:

Kate Bush
"This Woman's Work"
The Sensual World
Columbia Records

Well, starting Sunday they started playing a version of this video that
added two lines to the label:

The Sensual World; The Videos
CMV Home Video

This version did not have that static problem, so I guess they got a new
copy.

Yesterday afternoon, when I saw the video, they were using the old version
again:  Four lines in the label, and static at the key point.  But this
morning, I saw a version that had four lines in the label, but no static!

I hope that no matter how many lines they use for the label, they'll 
continue to use their new copy of the video.
