question about RF VIDEO

Take this for what it's worth. It's from a random blog I found, but it's pretty much what I've heard elsewhere.

As far as the video of this match goes, ECW actually had an agreement with a company that allowed them to shoot footage of house shows, the stuff that wouldn't get on TV. ECW's TV production was already low-key, but the Fan Cam shows took it a step further, as the guys filming shows weren't even accorded professional-grade cameras, and Joey Styles, the voice of ECW, didn't call the matches. The footage exists in a weird sort of negative zone--WWE owns the ECW tape library, but ECW didn't own these shows. That means that a significant chunk of poorly shot ECW history is being sold without a dime of it going to the pockets of Vince McMahon. Of course, a lot of it's kind of lame, but it's disappointing that a hypothetical Best of ECW Volume 3 DVD won't have a weird little thing like this as an easter egg.

And, as a bonus, here's a look at the quality with Lance Storm vs. Jerry Lynn.
