"Included in the set is an Amazon exclusive bonus disc with additional never-before-seen performance footage from Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, and Country Joe and the Fish plus three additional featurettes!"

I'm a big CCR fan so it would be nice to see footage of this, but seeing as I don't own anything from their Woodstock appearance, I'll consider it a nice bonus either way.
Also, those large photos of the set look very cool, but I can see that I may have to stash that fringe overlay somewhere so that the box will fit nicely on my shelf with my other box sets.

What about The Band? Shouldn't at least one of their songs finally make it into this version?

I think I will wait closer to release day in-case it turns out like Htwww. WS is not showing up on Dvdpricesearch yet. While I would like to have the extra disc, If someplace has it for 20.00 or so.... I have been disapointed in the past with a so called "exclusive disc" offers.

So, has anybody picked this up yet? I was browsing through Costco last night and was surprised to see the SD UCE (I forgot that the date had been moved in to June). $40, so I picked it up. I passed on the Blu-ray set because I wasn't interested in the BD exclusives and because BD playback options are extremely limited for me... PS3 only. (I like the flexibility of taking clips and playing them on various devices)

I got mine from amazon on release day, but I haven't played any of it yet so I can't comment on the video/audio.
I was surprised that the whole thing came in a plastic outer box. I figured I'd have to remove the fringe slipcover to fit it on my shelf, but the whole thing can be stashed inside the plastic outer cover. Not bad (just big).

^If you thought that was big, you should've seen Target's exclusive packaging. That sucker was quite massive!
Ended up getting mine at Best Buy. I have no problem with the A/V at all, but I wished there was a better, extensive documentary to go with the features. There's lot of participants and tales to be told, but they're all broken down in little, flimsy featurettes that often run for no more than 2 minutes.

That Target set looks cool, but I have no where to display it. I'll take the Amazon 4 discer and just put it on the boxset shelf.

I wish they would do another monterey pop festival set, they held back lots of footage that I know exists but criterion claimed doesn't.

I got mine from Amazon on release day....but they sent the wrong version. I ordered the DVD and they sent me the Blu-ray. I even double-checked my order to see if I made the mistake.
I went through the online process (first time ever) and it was pretty smooth. They sent me an email right away apologizing and then I got shipping notice for the replacement.

I'm very disappointed that one can't get the equivalent of the SD-DVD in blu-ray. I don't need a bunch of frills for $40+. There should be a blu-ray out there for $20.

Not really sure what you are looking for. Are you saying you want a 1 disc version of the blue ray release for $20? Is there even a 1 disc version of this release on dvd?
