Any problems with Springsteens DualDisc?

I've got Springsteens new cd on order with Amazon and its a dualdisc, which, from what I've read does not quite meet Redbook standards. What should I expect? Damage to my Cary 303/200 or my Toshiba DVD player? What kind of sound quality?

I did do a quick search on the forums before writing this note, and I could not tell exactly whether the folks who wrote were experienceing problems with dualdisc or there was just anger in the perception that Sony was taking up the cause of dualdisc in place of SACD.

What's really going on?

Thanks,
Art

What I think is going on is that my tower records charges $20 for this new release, and there's only 12 audio tracks. DualDisc means no choice - you get the video portion, and pay seven dollars more. It's gouging by another name.

I only hope college students and other file sharers are ripping the record companies off as badly as the record companies claim.

BTW, I assume the audio recording quality is as bad as most other Springsteen efforts...(some worse than others.)

I don't think opposing Bush constitutes far left politics at all. Many centrist people opposed him; just not enough of them (as tabulated.) If you have some other indication than Springsteen is "far left," I wish you would post it.

There are a lot of people who think Springsteen does not have a "good" singing voice. It's not important that he does in the sense they mean it, because you don't necessarily have to be a technically good singer to be expressive.

I think he's a pretty good artist, and wish he would demand better quality recordings....

>Chadnliz - Do I really need to post an example of his politics?

Yes, that's what I asked for: Examples of his "far left" politics. I don't think you have any such examples.

Now, if you're only joking then that's what I'll take your opinions for. (Of course, when I imply your political opinions are a total joke, I am only joking. So get over it, Benito.)
