All I did was mention the discussion and linked it to provide information and then invited folks to draw their own conclusions.

>>> "Since you don't care about sound quality, the problem won't bother you." <<<

Hmmm, well, I think folks might conclude that drop-outs of any kind on a concert DVD are unacceptable; it's more than just a sound quality issue in the manner of perceived differences between DTS, Dolby, stereo, surround, lossless-HD, etc. Drop-outs are in another category altogether, because loss of the smallest portion of a recorded performance can drastically impact enjoyment of listening to that particular section of music.

BTW, I never said that I don't care about SQ at all, but lossless audio isn't as high on my list of priorities as PQ, favorite movies, glitch-free performance and reasonable pricing. OTOH, when high quality sound is touted on both formats and a much anticipated concert title issued on both has noticeable drop-outs only on the format with the "all important" greater capacity, then something is obviously amiss.

>>> "If you want my blu-ray copy it will be on ebay as soon as the remaining stock is gone from retailer bins." <<<

LOL! Thanks, but NO THANKS! While I have no dog in this hunt and appreciate the offer, please keep that puppy quarantined! ;O)

If I should decide to pick this title up it will be on HD.

>>> "Some auctions have already ended in the neighborhood of $50." <<<

Great! So, basically you've moth-balled your pompoms and you're coming around to the POV that Blu-ray discs should be regarded as rare collectors items, right? ;^D
