Which version did you get? I still can't decide. My problem is deciding whether the video content is worth owning. I am mainly interested in the music which points me to the cd's. But then I think of Neil's vision. And isn't there more music if you go the dvd route? I don't own a blue-ray player, which is what Neil wants everyone to own.
That is my obsession with this set.
