According to Polish buyers, there are three or four problems:
- they used an inferior x264 encoder instead of the superior h264; about 20% of the space on the single-layer disc was left unused;
- some logos and the barcode were used as JPG images in lower resolution;
- a price change (increase then reduction) of the collector's edition during the subscription period.

Filmokaz's website will probably be operational in September, because it doesn't make sense to me to start sales during the summer. I hope their first release won't suffer from the usual teething problems that such releases tend to have (see, for example, the Polish label Second Hand Video). However, I think the long-term problem will be securing the rights to release subsequent films.
I just want to make sure I get an order in as soon as it's possible. Wasn't certain what the timeline for this release is.
