I found something interesting, it seems that France gets better DVDs than Japan. I ordered the Spirited Away DVD from France, and it had the English theatre language track and a Japanese track. It also got all the way from Paris to Missouri in 6 days. Also the french copy seems to be the only one without the pink problem.
There's an english dub on the new french dvd of spirited away which is actually called Le Voyage De Chihiro. Be carefull though some of the old french dvds are still around. I ordered it on a sunday from alapage.com and I had it the following Saturday. The english dub is the same one I heard in the theatres and its in Dolby 5.1 and there are also a french and japanese audio tracks. A fench DTS track is also available.
Actually the bundle is really a bootleg, but since its ripped from the existing laser discs and other dvds it stii gives a good quality. It's not official though.
Actually I found out that france has a new region 2 DVD with the American English dialouge in Dolby 5.1, check fnac or alapage. It costed me $36 for the dvd and shipping and I had it in my hand in 6 days.
I Don't understand why people are waiting for those DVDs, I purchased a long time ago a multi system, multi region DVD player, and I have had most of these DVDs a long time ago, and these aren't bootlegs they're official releases. If people are waiting for them so bad why not just pay the extra money for a universal DVD player. I have even had the Spirited Away DVD for a while now, which I ordered from france. The movie has a french DTS track, but it also has a Dolby Digital English and Japanese tracks. Just Import it, in this day and age I can order anything from around the world and have it in a week.

It's the same english dub I saw in the theatre. There's even a version with a imited edittion cover and a cell from the movie but its twice the price.
