<br>I got the dvd today guys and it's great because it's pretty complete. The quality for the New Order Story was pretty good. The video collection itself, I have a few complaints. The first video, "Confusion", has a video glitch about 1/3 of the way down from the top. It's rather noticeable. I can't understand with the technology today why they didn't fix that. Being the first video on the dvd, people usually judge the whole dvd by that. Another problem is on the "Perfect Kiss" video. There's an audio glitch when Gillian turns on the synths. I thought it was intentional but when I watched the New Order Story which had the same video on it, there was no audio glitch. Of course, this is the second track on the dvd so I was really worried the rest would be bad but I didn't catch anything else from that point on. Man, a label as large as Warner Bros. should have someone do quality control and watch the master before they press all of these. I would have gladly done it.

Sean- I just got home and in my mail was "Item"! I just watched Confusion and PK. Yes you are right there seems to be a glitch about 1/3 down on the screen in Confusion, but really I only saw it maybe 3 times, 5 nanoseconds each time. Not sure I would have noticed it if I hadn't watched very closely and/or read your comment. It is still a GREAT video, perhaps my fav NO video (NYC in the mid 80s, the pizza girl, graffiti-laden subways, Barney when he was 50 pounds less!!, the World Trade Center, NO taking a taxi to the gig, getting patted down by security[:D]).
And yes, there is a picosecond aural glitch in PK.
The 2 DVD set comes in 2 separate DVD cases (contained in an outer paper box). My DVDs were in the wrong slip cases when I opened them; BFD!
