OK, this is my first attempt at making my own comparison, - so bare with me, I'm not used to doing these. Sorry if I mess it up - maybe you guys can correct me. (I tried to make a topic about this title some time ago, but it wasn't very clear, sorry about that, so here are the details for the DVD I own).
The following is a copy of "Threads (1984)" on UK DVD, Region-2, released by "Simply Media":

Also, just so you guys know - I know for certain that there are two versions of this title - one which includes the additional background music during the opening scene, and one that doesn't (my copy). I have found proof of this on the following website (so long as the links remain active on the site anyway):

If you select "extra links" and watch the very beginning of the videos listed, at least one plays it with the music included, and at least one does not. However I do not know for certain why or when the music was removed - I can only go by what IMDB and wiki say, that the music was supposedly part of the original broadcast, but why it is not part of my copy and maybe others, I have no idea (I can only assume copyright reasons).
