I DO NOT like the idea of backup singers in my right ear behind me. I think that's someone trying to be fancy just because they can. It's kind of silly.

The sound should be like I'm sitting in the same seat through the entire show. If they zoom in on the drummer, I don't want to feel like I walked over to talk to him. In that respect, I guess they could have done it worse than they did.

The sound quality did not disappoint me. I thought the 2 channel wasn't as dynamic, and preferred the surround mix, BUT only if I was sitting in the sweet spot. Also, I always reprogram the decoder to NO SUBWOOFER when watching this stuff so it's more natural sounding. I wish they would do these as 5.0 instead of 5.1, like Dave Grusin did on his West Side Story DVD.

PS - What's up with the interviews breaking up the songs? First time is OK, but geez, who the hell wants to sit there with the remote and keep clicking NEXT after each interview clip.
