They probably didn't pay much for that one at all, if anything; that was all Sony Music (SonyBMG at the time) who covered the costs for the cameras, authoring, etc. Don't know that for sure but that would be my guess, they were heavily promoting their new format at the time.

    We need to realize this DVDs is crew footage, it's not shot as a concert film like LS, FF, CP , BA or even RR when you get multi shots all over as well as crowd, I'm ok with this did, if it was filmed for a concert film I'd push for Blu Ray but for this footage, I'm good.

    the video shows boyd moving and playing an instrument. the audio doesn't reflect the instrument "plugged" in.

    a joke, frankly.

    We all realize that, but that really has nothing to do with resolution, they're still filming at 1080i60 so why not release matching resolution for home viewing. In addition the audio would be the #1 reason to prefer Blu-ray as then we'd get 24/96 audio matching what they capture the multitracks in. My Dire Straits Alchemy Blu-ray has VHS-sourced video, it's awful video quality, but the audio was based off the analogue multitracks and presented in 24/96 dts-ma 5.1, it sounds amazing.

    Many of copperpot's sources are high def and they look great, that's just people in the crowd with cameras.

    this is very true, which people need to remember. The Live Trax DVDs are all just based on the crew camera stuff that gets used on the big screens at a show. There's no big production like with a full on "wide" DVD release what with no crane cameras and all that jazz. If this was a wide in-store release, i would understand the complaining, but this is essentially a "hardcore fan" release in that the average DMB fan isn't buying Live Trax....should just be glad that they're releasing footage, as typically we'd only get the audio for the other 30+ Live Trax releases...

    don't care. I'm not buying any more video until they get with the times and start offering a blu ray option. Its an 8 year old media, no excuse to not jump onto that train.

    You don't need a crane for a quality mix and based on r&r they did a much better job then typical crew footage
    No hd, no excuse

    I don't understand the logic that because it's screen footage we shouldn't want better quality audio and picture.

    This years Summer Tour videos (from last summer) were all in HD , sounded great and looked fantastic . Weren't those shot from the crew , using the screen footage ?

    The question remains , if they can release those videos in HD , (and since they released R&R in HD) , why wouldn't they just release this DVD in HD ?

    Makes no sense .

    It has to be a cost thing. Management wanted to offer a DVD option (likely because fans keep asking for it), but didn't want to front a lot of money for it. They wanted to cram the whole show onto 1 disc, which keeps costs down and inevitably eliminates an HD option.

    I firmly believe we're getting the DVDs we are (LT28, now LT32) because fans demand it. Keep requesting HD/Bluray options, and in time I believe it will come.

    I know lots of people who use and collect Bluray. It's caught on. Regular DVDs are all but dead at the hands of HD-streaming and VOD services. For now, Bluray has the market for folks who want to own a physical product, with bonus content and high quality.

    You might not know any of those folks, but trust me they're out there.

    Just can't be serious, unless he's in his late 90's, or lives in a 3rd world country.


    Or unless he's a shut in, and literally doesn't know anyone. At all.

    I work in retail, and if someone asks me where a movie is, I ask them "DVD or Blu-ray?" I'd say more than 50% of the time they answer Blu-ray

    70%+ of US households = never caught on.
    The top 100 Blu-ray discs in 2014 in the US alone have sold over 50 million units = never caught on.
