Thanks so much Chuck for all of the time and effort that you have put in to this. Can't believe the difference between the original HD masters and these new Blu Ray transfers, and all i can say is that I am pleased I didn't spend my hard earned cash on the R&H box set.
After reading the posts on here I have just emailed Amazon and have had a really nice reply. They will refund my credit card with the full amount and have told me not to worry about returning my original as I would need to post it from the UK. They said that I can then order a new copy.
They did...
