Noticed on Play.com a difference between the old and new FMA covers. Specificially the new licensor seems to be cropping the art so the logo appears on the top of the cover rather than the previous versions which tended to have it on the bottom. Don't know if this is true to the final product but if so I don't care for it.

Yes they made one small change, whoop de do. Its shwoing more of the cover art now, surely thats a good thing?

If you didn't flip flop on your attitude to other people so much, I wouldn't have said anything. Seriously, there have been times we've discussed things just fine but all too soon you get back on your high horse and start pointing the finger. EVERYONE but you is wrong, apparently.

To be honest, as long as the disk still has the actual show (and lacks madman's logos, thank you very much) in good nick this is a minor niggle.

Actual disc content is the vital area, certainly. But I'm a fan of the overall presentation. Not only is this editing the cover art seemingly just to make the covers look like any other DVD on the shelves (seriously, what's so wrong with the logo on the bottom?), it creates discontinuity with the previous volumes. I have volumes 1-2, 4-7 from the original release and now have to insert a slightly awkward volume 3 amongst them.
