the regional encoding on the dvd would be wrong, tho.
a region 1 dvd won't play on his DVD player... unless of course he bought his dvd player in canada or the US

I'd watch it on my laptop.
I could definitely get it ordered, but the shipping will probably be slightly hefty, and while in Europe I have a few better things to spend my money on than a dvd. I'll get it once I'm home.
Sorry for asking as I am sure the answer is somewhere in this thread. But is the only way to get the book and the videos dvd if you buy the box set?
Just spoke to a lady from Maplemusic.com and she said that the $54.99 was the "band's set price." Can anyone explain to me how Futureshop/Bestbuy can sell for that much lower? ($44.99) And because of the free shipping (or just picking it up in the store), the difference in price is almost $18.00!!
I felt bad because clearly they want to make a sale just as badly as everyone else but a price point of that much lower makes it awfully difficult!

If I have the choice between buying something for 44.99 from Bill Gates, or 54.99 from a poor man living on the street, I choose 44.99.
If you can't competitively price your items, that's your problem, not mine.

I don't know if I would go to that extreme of an analogy. The poor man on the street must have an important reason for trying to make that extra $10 bucks. The Hip on the other hand will still see the same profit per unit (I am assuming) so I guess it probably doesn't matter much to them. The only one feeling the hurt would be the middle man (in this case Maplemusic).
if i'm offered a free one through work(the station is getting a few to give away)..should i take one? i think i might feel bad not buying it

Take it, why not? What's there to feel bad about? I don't think Gord and co. are starving, if you want to keep supporting the band go to a concert buy the new album etc...If it was me I'd take it.

I think FS and BB sell a lot of their CDs and DVDs at a loss to bring people into the stores.
