Considering that Balto has a 5.1 Surround Sound track on the 2002 DVD and the 2017 Blu-Ray release and I don't know if this is the original theatrical mix, does anyone have the Cinema DTS CD of that film or a laserdisc copy? I'm interested to see how this compares to the home video releases' audio tracks (especially with Cinema DTS) given the movie's obscurity.
Since Balto was in theaters for a short period of time cause it was a box-office bomb (Toy Story still being the hottest film at the time of its release contributed to the poor performance which led to Universal putting this film into direct-to-video in select territories 1-2 years later; ironically it spawned 2 DTV sequels), DTS discs are very hard to find and it would be a delight if these would get preserved.
