I know the die hards will of course buy it, so they will have it be a commercial free concert and to get the full show. But i think it probably will hurt sales, being so close to the instore release date. JMO

On the other hand, some people will buy the DVD and not bother watching it on PBS.

I think Mick was full of crap when he said he mysteriously "found" those tapes one day after never seeing them for decades. I've had them for years.

I'm going to buy the DVD today (if Best Buy can *find* them), because my local PBS station isn't airing the show at all. So I think there's still a market. I did decide against ordering the set with DR, because I taped that from VH1 and apparently there are no extras. If there were extras, I would have definitely purchased it even though I taped it.
