The problem with this set is the EXCESSIVE DVNR. Items in the scene that should move in unison are detached. Don't know how else to explain it. Horrible.

I subscribe shortly after the product was released. Once I realized I could use my cuecat (remember those) to scan the barcode to add the movies, I was hooked. Speaking of scanning, I'd like to see an 'audit' feature where I can go back and reinventory my collection and have it show me the...
