Tommy,
Are you sure they played ALL the "opera" tracks live? Sweet Lady? Seaside Rendevous? Good Company? Lazing on a Sunday afternoon? I dunno. And even if they did, it's doubtful they'd have footage available for all that.
All I'm saying is that the DTS 96/24 sounds pretty dang close to the DVD-A from all accounts so to get the album in that format PLUS some video footage for under 10lbs. is pretty reasonable IMHO.
And once again, Brian and Roger have been pretty busy this year, doncha think?? If I had a choice between touring again or hunkering down in a studio with 30 year old tapes, I think I'd be out there playing. And at least they put out their DVDs at a reasonable price. What were DURAN DURAN's, like $35-$40?!?!?!?
I totally agree with Michael about the aspect ratio thing and they seemed to have stopped that. Wembley, Milton were correct. And each of those concert dvds did have over 2 hours of bonus footage!
but what do I know...
