A great little package that I bought to replace my old LG Blu-Ray player. This thing was half the size and weight of the old one, but came with several more features! Wireless internet connectivity (even through my phone's mobile hotspot) which makes it super easy to keep the firmware up-to-date, streaming apps such as YouTube, Netflix, and Hulu just to name a few, as well as USB connectivity for viewing digital content from a USB drive or portable hard disk drive including video, photos and music! I've yet to test out connectivity to my home computer for content sharing, but so far I've really enjoyed this player. My lone complaint is there is no LED indicator on the front to display info, nor is there any sort of lighting whatsoever to indicate whether the unit is on or off. This is a minor gripe, however, and the player functions just fine otherwise. Picture and sound quality are exactly what you'd expect from a 1080p HD device - loud and lovely!
A Worthy Reissue for a Classic, Misunderstood Work

Seven discs of music for what was originally a seventeen-song experience in 1998 - that's what you'll be getting with this item. The album itself has been wonderfully reproduced and remastered on disc 1 and in mono on disc 2. The mono mix is a bit of a puzzlement to me as I thought that was primarily a "vinyl thing." I would have much preferred to see disc 2 contain even more of the myriad unreleased material from that era, however it certainly doesn't detract from the value of the package. Still the bonus material on discs 3-6 provides a great listen and an opportunity to experience a different take on some of the released tracks as well as a glimpse behind the curtain at tracks that didn't make the final cut in '98. The digital remastering makes the tracks really spring to life, revealing sounds and layers I never even knew were present in the original release. The DVD contains footage from the 1998 Atlanta show. The show itself is great, however it's presented in 4:3 aspect ratio and not widescreen (my only gripe). Also included are three postcards, each with a photo of Billy, James, and D'Arcy, and a booklet containing liner notes by Billy Corgan on each song from "Adore" as well as lyrics. This is a must-own for any Smashing Pumpkins fan!
