I'm slowly adding the Criterion links, title by title (see: Linking Criterion.com website releases?) and there seems to be 3 categories: - Criterion re-issued part of their LD catalog to DVD/BD
- Some popular titles got out of their hands (Trainspotting, Seven, Pulp Fiction, etc.)
- MANY Cinemadisc Collection seems to have transitioned to the Criterion Collection
Is it an official deal? Julien

I wish I could give info on this but I remember these were around that same time at tower video. Discs like this Bob le flambeur (1955) [ID6492RC] are my guessing, those early ones that would have been transferred from one master source for both VHS, Beta and LD and they would save the artwork by doing that same box art on all formats. It may have been whatever company had the rights for cinemadisc then lost it and criterion picked them up? I only have 1 in my collection. Forgotten Tune for the Flute, A (1988) [ID7194FR]Image quality is fine but its one of those early masters that really wasn't changed much for any other format.
