For anybody considering weather to ditch your standard DVd release in favor of the Blu-Ray, do it now is my advice. The picture is so much better in terms of clarity and brightness, the colors are  much more vivid, and it's all together less dark picture it makes this an essential purchase. Another very big bonus is the fact the Blu-Ray is in 16.9 Aspect whereas the regular DVD is 4.3. As for as Audio goes certainly a notch better there as well, I am not able to hook up the full Surround to give it a thorough listening in that mode, but as far as PCM Stereo goes it is still amongst the best sounding vintage live DVD I have heard
