A computer monitor image will be several levels better than a composite
video driven TV monitor.  A computer monitor is driven by separate Red
Green and Blue signals so full colour separation is retained.  
Composite video for a TV (NTSC or PAL) mixes the colour & brightness info
into one signal and some mixing does result.
It is therefore unlikely the images will look any better on a TV - probably
much worse.

Due to the nature of the colour phosphors used in most computer & TV
monitors, Red/Cyan anaglyphs have a better chance of offering less
ghosting - due to the relatively good separation between the red
and green phosphors.  The green and blue phosphors actually overlap.

I had a look at the site but couldn't find any reference to DVDs being
for sale...  Do you have the address of the actual page?

Cheers,
