I understand that you it's not possible so this question is entirely theoretical, but would you use narrated audios if you could? Or would you always stick to the original soundtrack?

My ideal Recon would be on DVD with 2 audio tracks, with the original and a narrated soundtrack to choose from.

Ah, but the problem there is that the original and narrated soundtracks are not always the same lengths - sometimes on the narrated soundtracks there are sections of the original sound that are altered to allow for a longer amount of narration than is possible in the unaltered recordings.

Yeah I know that mate, it wouldn't happen anyway. It was just a theoretical question. There are always ways around it though, if it was Blu-ray I think they could add extra video as well.

Why would you need a narrated soundtrack when you have text cues to link when it's not clear?

Bleeding hell this is hard work! It's only a simple question

Some people may prefer narrated audio's to cues?

Nope, i'm quite happy with narration when i listen in my car but i would find it intrusive when watching on a TV, the screen should show what is neccessary
