Anyone else watch this, then listen to the CD's of the performance and notice there is such an enormous difference, it's sad?

The DVD has some of the worst quality audio I've ever heard - I've tried manually dubbing the CD to the DVD by just synching up in winamp and it's much more enjoyable. Only problem is the CD edited out a lot of the applause so you can't just lay the CD down ontop of the DVD. Anyway, I'm trying to synch it up in Premiere now to make my own DVD, but it looks like it's gonna be a pain. I really wish the Superbit had come out.

God the dolby 2.0 on that disc is an embarassement. I have it on VHS and it sounds MUCH better. haha!

I can't believe that performance is 10 years old this year.
I thought Phillip Quast as Javert stole the show.

It reminds me how god-awful the movie with Liam Neeson was.

Looks like the best compromise is the Laserdisc which has a PCM track, and widescreen - unfortunately the video is quite noisy.

Found a 2 disc Chinese version on ebay which claims to have dts, but don't really trust that it isn't just a dts conversion of the dolby track.
