Single File vid facts but still need help

[Alex Gibbs <arg@kilimanjaro.opt-sci.arizona.EDU>]

   Since I didn't get a reply to my original post I did some digging
but still need help from the experts.

What I know:
   The Single File NTSC video was originally released in Japan and
Canada.  The Canadian version was re-released by EMI and available in
the US pretty easily in 1991.  A rumour about a US release was
probably a result of the CA release although a *bootleg* by "Cello
Video" with the name "The SingleS File" on the tape was around.

What I have heard:
   The JP version is better than the CA version.

What I want to know:
   Is this true?  If so, in what way and how much better is the JP
version?  (HiFi quality too.)  The JP version seems to be $30 more and
I want to determine if it's worth it to me.

Someone must know.... help, please.  Thanks!
