HIGH SCHOOL USA: Questionable on disc or tape

"It's very disappointing that the only home versions of the made-for-TVer HIGH SCHOOL USA (1983) are questionable ones. The VHS manufacturer, UNITED AMERICAN VIDEO, dubbed their product at SLP speed, the very slowest, and without HiFi audio. The few tapes I own from them have a crap picture, a bad hiss in the sound and major tracking problems.
As for the DVD outfit TRINITY HOME ENTERTAINMENT, their extensive catalog of skin flicks and slasher trash doesn't inspire me. After searching out reviews of their discs, I couldn't find anything specific to transfer quality, no raves or rants, yet I'm not prepared to plunge the necessary scratch to risk finding out if they are of better quality than UAE or not.
Is it fair to judge a home video outfit by their catalog? That's an individual choice. I gave this one a pass, for what it's worth."
