The DVDs suffer from poor compression, resulting in occasional mosquito noise and blocking. Colors were also quite dull. And yeah, Pony Canyon has a poor track record when it comes to DVD encoding.
The upconverted Blu-Ray release suffers from aliasing, but boasts much improved compression. Fortunately, consumers seem happy enough with it, and it's probably the best retail release we'll get unless Pony Canyon remasters the DVDs (probably unlikely) or launches another HD version in the future.
On a related note, I'm hearing wonderful things about the new Kanon DVD, so it seems that the company has finally begun improving their product quality.
