experience with Ruscico

[Sasha Senderovich]

Through rbcmp3.com one can choose either PAL or NTSC (North American, I
can't remember whether it's Zone 1 or 2) format for RUSCICO DVDs. One can do
the same on the RUSCICO website itself - they have both kinds of prints for
most, if not all, films. By the way, someone asked yesterday if it is
possible to order from RUSCICO directly - it is, and can be done through the
website. I've done it a couple of times before I realized that there is an
American-based distributor. DVDs arrive just fine, though, since they are
shipped from Moscow (free of charge) they take a couple of weeks to get
here. But, as many postings yesterday suggested, there is really no need to
do it - rbcmp3 has most titles.

All best,
Sasha Senderovich
