 * Oppose It looks like the one posted on youtube is much better quality when changed to 480p. I paused at a few similar frames in both and it looks to me like the youtube version is clearly superior. However, if I'm mistaken will gladly change to support, would like to see this featured!

 * If the music is part of your consideration, it shouldn't be. The music could not have been included with the original film (there's a reason it was called the "silent" era) and was a later addition which may or may not be copyrighted. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 22:52, 15 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Just the image quality was all I was concerned about. I paused both at similar frames and the youtube one looks much better. However, I could be mistaken. Would support the better quality version if that is possible. Mattximus (talk) 19:44, 16 November 2013 (UTC)
