I'm very glad that we're getting the DVD version. Otherwise it would've been a reason for me not to get the boxset.

What did you expect me to do, after you took away Mother's mace?
(please pretend it's Lucille saying that, and not smirky Bono. .... or not. It works coming out of that mouth, too.)

She is sayin that she wants to purchase the stand-alone version of the movie.

Sounds to me like she's saying she wants to buy the box set, and that she owns a DVD player (and not a Blu-ray).

spin's just a big nevermind tribute anyway.they love to come up with new lists to put the album or smells like teen spirit at #1.
Actually, Spin recently named Achtung Baby the best album of the past 25 years:

That's actually probably an accurate assessment IMO.

it almost definitely will
would be very very stupid of them to assume people would buy a deluxe/UBER set JUST to get the film...that really would be taking fans for a ride. moreso.

That was way harsh, Tai.

I don't know...
DVDs such as this aren't really bought by casual or even "medium" fans. Music DVDs(especially documentaries) are bought by diehards. So I can't see a big market for this DVD stand alone. But who knows?

Ah really? Whereabouts are you from may I ask? Just asking cause in the UK i always see plenty of music DVDs available when i got into music shops. it's obviously a fairly niche thing compared to, for example, the new season of glee on DVD (shudder) but they're always readily available I find which is great.
I bet they'll make a load in selling it to TV channels worldwide for further exposure at some point which would shift a few copies [of the dvd] not to mention raise awareness/interest in the album itself for anyone unfamiliar with it, which will conveniently be on sale as a mega box set so two birds, one stone

I do not want to read 26 pages to find this out...
....so IS the album re-mastered or is it not?
We still don't know.
Wow. This seems like something they would announce and freaking clear up all the confusion among the fans.

I think there's some sort of "submit your questions via Twitter" event going on tomorrow in conjunction with the Guggenheim movie, and HOPEFULLY the band will be inundated with questions about remastering.

I don't know that they would be aware of every topic of conversation amongst tens of fans on the internet. (Even on their own forum.)

all great dvd's.
not everybody's like me, but come on it's not completely unthinkable for this documentary to come out separately
They live in a bubble - that's NOT a crticism, all hugely successful, wealthy music stars do. But I did expect better from their marketing people. After all, it's not like the casual music fan is going to be buying these boxsets. We, the harcore contingent will be, we're going bananas over the remaster issue, and U2's people seem oblivious. That's disappointing.

You're a rarity...
And I didn't say it was unthinkable, BUT historically these types of DVD sales are very small and focus on niche markets. So basically this DVD and the deluxe package are targeted towards the same exact market, so don't be suprised if you don't see it sold separately it just doesn't make a lot of marketing sense.
Smarter business says they release it to Showtime and a few OnDemand type markets.

I'm skipping the Uber/Super deluxe editions of AB, but I'll pick up the Blu-Ray of this when it comes out.
