This. As someone who still has cable (mostly for sports) its slowly on decline. Any new MJ project should be on every streaming platform though. Younger generations are streaming only for sure.

you're right though obviously but I am annoyed lol

TV still exists though the only difference is that people now watch when they want and not "live" any more.

Yeah I dont agree with locking it in with one service either. They could easily do both cable and streaming.
 
So apparently, according to the person in the comments, they saw a clip of Michael wearing the Thriller jacket, from late 1983, while recording “The Lady In My Life” in late 1982.


Yeah, sounds plausible. Lol. I guess we should believe everybody from now, no matter how fishy their claims are and without an ounce of proof.

I heard in the documentary they're going to show how Who Do You Know is another demo for Behind The Mask.

Frenzy's commenting that.😉

Nah, if Frenzy was making the docu, he'd talk about MJ having anorexia, how the album departed from Black Music because white money is more valuable than black people's money or whatever, and that he created Billie Jean in 1972 and left it off the Forever, Michael album. Or something
 
I don’t understand the technical aspects, but this is the best quality I’ve seen. the songs are removed unfortunately..
likewise for the ‘billie jean’ video

wtf is this.

I hope the "final cut" of the doc has Billie Jean in HD. Lounis said BJ victory tour is mixed with HD/SD footage so I hope that is also updated.

Edit: For AI upscaling to work you need a good uncompressed source. Also, trying to stretch 480 LQ visions rip to 4k wont look any good lol. Highest I would even test is 1080 imo.
 
Starting to doubt we're getting Billie Jean in HD. Won't surprise me if they try to act like remastering one video is a big deal for the 50th anniversary.

this is my attempt, i believe upscaling is good for one thing and that is to make 480p a BETTER 480p, or 720 a BETTER 720p.

i used noise reduction and colour correction and thats it, i didnt use anything else as it gets messy.

Hey, if they can't find the original film reels, they can't do anything.

They admitted it with the Wembley show, and I remember people being mad about it. But, like it happens.

It's sad that way too much classic media is lost like a pair of house keys or a cell phone.

I get that, but in wembley's situation they didn't even mention any lost film until last year after we provided them the research on it. We were annoyed that we got a garbage quality VHS release in 2012 when we knew better sources existed. The excuse back then was "audio isn't usable for other shows" or "we were lucky to even find the wembley VHS"...The wembley audio we got wasn't even in their archives. Luckily some of the people involved in the multitrack recording had it. So I think the same goes for any other currently "lost" MJ media. The estate just needs to actually put the time & money into locating as much as possible. You would think Thriller, Beat it, and Billlie Jean masters would be in the same place.

They definitely consider anything they don't have right in front of them as "lost" and don't bother looking.
