Well I hope I'm wrong ignoring Amazon but the below URL doesn't list the DVD on its own from Queen's own site, only available from £100

Earls Court and Houston were on two different tours.

So you're happy sticking with your outdated VHS tape, which doesn't even come close to this new Blu-Ray release in terms of quality or content... That's a dumb decision.

Me as as an old Queen fan, yeah that 70's era is very, very and very happy - understatement - with this release. And by judging your comments and thoughts proves that there is stíll a market for releasing the 70's stuff. This is huge and I for one believe that is a commercial succes. Could be wrong though. I only hope and wish that QP will continue with releasing some more of this stuff, and in a decent time frame.

does anyone have any information about dvd and blu ray region of this release? it's not specified in the press release. i hope it's gonna be region free cos i'm gonna buy super deluxe box set and it's much cheaper on amazon.com than on any european amazon. i hope single bd and dvd release are also gonna be region free. it's criminal how expensive deluxe box set is on european amazon sites compared to amazon.com.

Don't music releases tend to be region-free? I know it's not a definitive answer, but that was true of both Budapest & the last Wembley release.

I know is going a little fast, but we must spend some time till September, so, what you guys think, Houston? watching how good the Rainbow tapes look, they could do wonders with the Houston gig aswell.

Well. Houston was recorded on 525 line NTSC video tape, Rainbow on 625 line PAL video tape.
The quality and colour differences are poles apart so Houston won't look as good as Rainbow.
That said, if Rainbow is only released on NTSC DVD or 60i BD as they have been since QPL signed to Island, then to the 3/4 of the world that have PAL systems, THAT will look shitter than it ought.
