FWIW I've started downloading a series where the 1st episode was 25fps at the higher image 'size' but the second only available at 50fps. So I compared them and was surprised that I didn't actually notice much difference in the visible level of detail. But then I do have lousy eyesight. :-) I have in the past been quite sensitivie to 'flicker' with ye olde CRT monitors (for computer use). But I am much less bothered by 'jerky' images which seem to show up on some 25fps material. (My guess is that this is due to large blocks being juddered because of the limit on the data rate.) I remain puzzled, though, but the apparent decision to take away the *choice* of having the larger resolution at 25fps.
