Oh yes I agree, I have saved my CC GC from xmas, I just received some Best Buy Rewards certificates the other day from when my dad bought his new TV about 2 months ago, and my FYE credit to help fund the next 2-3 weeks of HD DVD and BD releases. Kind of crazy, but had to plan for this. LOL!

I own "AC/DC: Live at Donington" on DVD. And I love it. But I wasn't intending to repurchase it on Blu-Ray. Until I read this.

Quote:

The Audio: Rating the Sound This is where 'Live in Donington' really kicks ***. This uncompressed PCM 5.1 Surround track (48kHz/24-bit) is a whopper. It delivers everything you want from an AC/DC live recording -- stomping bass, excellent fidelity, and ear-piercing highs on the vocals. (Note there are also PCM 2.0 Stereo and Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround options, but the PCM 5.1 track is the way to go.) The audio has been clearly remixed, producing excellent isolation of the instruments to specific channels. 'Live in Donington' has the palpable quality of the best concert soundtracks, making you feel as though you’re sitting in a great seat smack in the middle of the show floor. Attenuation of sound, timbre, and fidelity is top-notch, and ambient crowd noise is perfectly dispersed around the soundfield (the sing-alongs are particularly exciting). Thankfully, dynamic range is also not overbearing, with the high-end never cracking or sounding too brittle or harsh (quite an achievement considering the fact that Brian Johnson's vocals could makes a dog’s ears bleed. Low bass is also fantastic, with the subwoofer kicking in right from the opening strains of "Thunderstruck." The source elements have also been nicely cleaned up, with no noticeable variances in audio volume or other imperfections. This is a first-class, five-star soundtrack all the way.
