Blah, if that is the case, then I will pass on that silliness.

Content is disappointing to me. I'd much rather have b-sides and unreleased tracks instead of a 5.1 remix and/or documentary material.

This article gives more specifics about what will be on each release - sounds like anything extra is tacked onto the DVD. Mostly documentaries, a few live clips.

Probably will pass on these.

It sounds to me like the DVD's might be DVD-A's since it says that they are being mastered by the same guy who mastered the Document DVD-A.

I'll buy them if DVD-As are included.

These are going to be DVD-A releases ala The Flaming Lips (also WB) Yoshimi DVD-A. 1 CD, 1 DVD-A.

Personally, I'm looking forward to several of them... to more DVD-A on the market. The WB REM catalog should be big enough to attract a few more folks into the Hi-Rez realm. Hopefully, the mixes and masters will be top notch.

Depends on what they do with the mix. If it's dull and lifeless like Automatic for the People's DVD-A it's not worth it. If they bring new life to the sound, I'll buy a few. No use remixing for 5.1 if you're not going to do something different and creative.
