Live In Boston full-sized DVD case. Anyone?
 
I know it seems like a waste of a new thread, but I'm very curious if any Ledgies have the Fleetwood Mac Live In Boston DVD that was not issued as a digipack 2 dvd set with the cd, which looks like a cd and not a dvd, which is how I think all US copies were sold.
Does anyone have the non-US version, where the dvd is released in the correct sized dvd packaging?! I hate having dvds that look like cds.
I see one on eBay now from Canada, that appears to be the full-sized dvd case, and was wondering how the cd is inserted in it, like is it in a separate cardboard insert, or what?
Another difference is that the description says that it is a standard format dvd, not widescreen or letterbox, like the version released here in the US.
I'll try to insert the link for the eBay Canadian 'Live In Boston' dvd/cd, and if anyone here has it, please advise if it is full-screen and what kind of booklet, packaging, any details. Thank you! (as the thread disappears to the bottom of the page! that's ok, figured there may be someone who has it).

I got it! It was the only thing that was sold in Germany at least! I can post some scans in a few minutes!

I have it too.... both versions could be bought in Canada. The full size dvd case is thicker then the standard dvd case - about a dvd case and a half thick. Inside, one side has both dvds, overlapping one another, and on the other side on the inside is the cd - with a fullsize booklet over that.

Thank You!
 
Thank You for the scans to the first person who replied, and thank you to the second person for the description of the dvd case and cd in the next reply. A.D.D. much? I read both of your replies 20 seconds ago and can't remember your exact user-ids. But I thank you both, very much.
I really think I need to buy this Canadian release. Another sale for 'Live In Boston'- I won't mind having 2 copies, then I'll be able to keep the one I have with my cd collection, and the new one will fit correctly with all of my other DVDs. It's nice the label, or whoever, released it the way it should be, in Canada! I bet it sold more in Canada than in the States, too. Dvds shouldn't look like cds :)

I have the dvd sized packaging - that's how it was sold in the UK. The above poster is correct in saying that it is latrger than a standard dvd case but, like you, I like dvds to be in dvd packaging so I;d definitely go for this! Plus, it's just a far more impressive package...and I've just realised that may sound a bity dirty!

Or it's the vodka from earlier coming back to bite me in the ass...

I don't think packaging would effect sales so much that it would sell more in canada than in the US. Even if someone mistook it for a cd....cds sell more than dvds

now if they would just release it in Blu Ray, if not a DVD that is 16:9 and not the godawful letter box!
