SPOILERS FOR ALL OF BUFFY
Suggested versions
(links support the channel)
Note: Unfortunately I can't keep up on the what digital service is carrying which version of the show (especially internationally) as they change too frequently. However, a LOT of people have asked me which to buy so these are the two versions for purchase that are currently the best choices for the original experience of the show.
Buffy Seasons 1-7: The Complete Series (Region 1)
This is the current print DVD, American, stand definition, 4:3 boxed set for the series. This is the format as originally intended by Joss Whedon.This version will ONLY work in a Region 1 (North American) DVD player unless ripped.

Buffy Complete Season 1-7 - 20th Anniversary Edition [DVD] [2017] (Region 2)
This is the 16:9 Standard Definition European DVD printing. This is the second best version of the series currently available for purchase. Second best because the show was not protected for 16:9 so SOME onscreen errors are present (vignetting, mics, etc.) but NOTHING on par with the current HD remaster. These DVD's will ONLY work in a Region 2 (Eurpopean) DVD Player unless ripped.
