I don't care that much about them, I buy the DVDs for the episodes,
but it's still nice to have them. I ususally watch them once only. The
series I buy I like a lot so I'm certainly interested in background
information.

As I said it's just so much better in English so that's what I watch
of course. I basically only check out the German track to confirm how
bad it is.

Well, there's two sides. For those not speaking English or not speaking
it well it's better to listen to a dubbed version then having
subtitles keeping their eyes at the bottom of the screen at all times.
For those good in English the original is certainly more enjoyable. I
envie people living in a country where the language is English or
subtitles are used. For me more or less the only way to watch the
original is to buy DVDs. In fact that is the most important reason why
I do that.

Believe it or not, if Germany went from dubbing to subtitles there
would be a major outcry from 90% of the population. Sad but true.
