I just got this today.
It has:
Keep Case
5.1 Dolby Digital and stereo tracks
19 songs
Some of the songs are 12-14 minutes! A lot of extended jamming.
over 2 hours of music
multiple angles
slide show with music
web links
3 of the songs have 4 multiple angles:
They show different members of the band and views from the left and right.
The picture is full frame. It's crisp and clear.
The sound is very good with different instruments in each speaker, audience in the rear.
The only problem that I could find is that there are no track listings except in the menu. None on the back of the case and there is no insert either.
Overall a very good disc. I would recommend this to any Dave Matthews fan.

I'm in total agreement. Sharp picture. Very good 5.1 sound; but I can't understand why the piano and keyboard tracks are mixed into the rear channel -- very strange. Still, it sounds great. I always love multiple angles, even if it is just a gimmick. The lack of a song listing is very perplexing, especially since they are included on the back of the VHS and CD releases. Somebody wasn't paying attention.

I watched "Listener Supported" on PBS and bought the CD the day it was released so I was pretty psyched about this DVD. The lack of track listing on the packaging or in the form of an insert is pretty ridiculous. Otherwise, I'm pleased with the DVD.
