Star Trek "DeMastered" Video Service to Launch

Posted by Zonk on from the blast-from-the-past dept.

SlashRating© E slashdottit! tm lopy writes "The Star Trek franchise has partnered with the little known DuroSport Corporation to launch a new video download service. The service will offer 'DeMastered' versions of classic Trek episodes. The new releases roll-back the quality enhancements of recent years and attempt to replicate the experience viewers had while watching the original series on TV in the 1960's. Medialoper was given a preview, and they've just posted a scathing review of this odd new service."

    Ooh! Will it automatically switch itself to black and white for those who didn't yet have a color set? It was a long time before my wife knew why "nameless assistant #1" who was the first killed by the monster was referred to as a "red-shirt" ("Did he delay his first year of acting to extend his eligibility?").
