I suppose someone could argue that the original footage this was transferred from was on an old-style movie reel, but why even record the sound of the movie reel in the first place when the footage itself was silent?
Years ago, I remember my father had all of our old "super 8" home movies transferred to videotape. The guy who did the video transfer for us did not record the sound of the projection equipment...
...I mean, why would he? Why would a person want to record all of the ambient sounds around them when doing a film-to-video or a film-to-digital transfer? Heaven forbid the person doing the film transfer coughs or sneezes or breathes too heavily.
