good earphones

I use these on a treadmill. The sound quality is good, the music comes through louder than my previous pair. My previous earphones had adjustable over-ear hooks, these don't, which is why I am deducting one star. I have not had a problem with these JVC falling off, but the fit could be better.

a must have for Metallica fans
on May 14, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a great concert DVD from when Metallica was promoting the Load album. The set list is fantastic, containing the biggest hits.
Disc 2 also has some interview segments with the band and the crew.
There is also a destruction scene during Enter Sandman, where the set collapses and a few of the stagehands appear to be hurt. I don't know why that was done. It doesn't add anything to the concert, but it isn't a reason to not buy the DVD.

Makes tablet use easier? Sometimes
on March 17, 2015
Posted by: js606
from Chicago, IL
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have a Surface tablet, and find the touchscreen sometimes doesn't respond to touches, especially in regards to drop down menus. I bought this stylus in the hopes it would make tablet use easier. Sometimes the Surface doesn't react to the stylus tip. I think the problem is related more to the tablet screen than the stylus (I have the same issue with iPads, so I don't mean to criticize the Surface too much). The stylus wasn't expensive, so I am not too upset about the purchase. It is light and easy to handle.

Every moment counts when your team takes the ice. You grip your stick tighter and steel yourself for the faceoff, ready to snag the puck and put your play into action. Your offense is razor-sharp, your defense is airtight and your enforcer isn't afraid to bloody up the opposing team or take a few minutes in the penalty box. Once the puck is in motion the five men behind you burst into action, sending it through a series of intricate passes too fast to intercept. You shoot past other players and take control of the puck once more, a breakaway move that brings it all down to you and the other team's goalie. This is your chance to reserve your place in the history books and lead your team to glory — do you have what it takes?Return to the rink with NHL 15, the latest installment in the series known for intense hockey action. Experience the thrill of the game with 12-Player NHL Collision Physics that provide hard-hitting collisions and player pile-ups. Test your skills in authentic playing conditions with Real Puck Physics that create realistic ice surfaces and puck motion to duplicate the unpredictable spins, rolls and bounces seen in nonstop NHL action. Enjoy the look and feel of a real game with the Next-Generation Hockey Player, modeled on authentic player and equipment models to deliver unprecedented player likenesses, emotions and animations. Feel the blazing-fast speed and the thunderous impact of hits with independently interacting bodies, equipment and jerseys that provide intense realism during contact with the puck or other players. Show off your skills with enhanced precision during gameplay thanks to the Superstar Skill Stick, which offers intuitive control as you pass, receive and employ killer dekes. Bring home the sights and sounds of a heart-pounding game with the roar of the crowd cheering you on to greatness and insightful analysis from Ray Ferraro, plus exciting commentary delivered by Mike "Doc" Emrick and Eddie Olczyk from the NBC Sports Broadcast Package.

I bought this game for my nephews and love to play it when I visit. Even though there are a lot of tricks like spins and fakes, it is easy to control the players. There are also throwback uniforms for all the teams (even teams that no longer exist like the Nordiques, Rockies, and Whalers). Foreign and minor league teams can also be selected.

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band make a triumphant return in Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band: Live in New York City. This bombastic two-disc concert is presented in 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen which features striking colors and extremely detailed images. Nary a single ounce of edge enhancement, digital artifacting, or shimmer is found at all during this feature. The audio is presented in Dolby Digital 5.1 in English as well as PCM Stereo in 2.0. The 5.1 soundtrack is an excellent reproduction of a concert-going experience: all surround speakers are utilized to their full capacity with the bass thumping loud and thick. No distortion or hiss is heard at all during the feature. All in all, this is an excellent audio mix for fans to rock & roll with. No subtitles are included on this disc. While the extra features on this disc are slim, those that are included are worthwhile. To start with, there is a small photo gallery of the band on- and off-stage. The best feature on this disc comes in the form of a featurette titled "New York City Serenade: Bob Costas & the E Street Band." This all-too-brief feature includes Bob Costas interviewing Bruce Springsteen about his thoughts on the band, the reunion, and what it's like to play the music after so many years. Fand of "the Boss" will definitely want to pick up this amazing concert DVD.

Great concert DVD for Springsteen fans

This 2 disc set is from The E Street Band reunion tour in 2000. Disc 1 has 14 songs and is 1 hour 45 minutes. There is also a 15 minute interview segment. Disc 2 has 11 songs and is 1 hour 15 minutes. Some of the big hits are missing, so hard-core Bruce fans might enjoy this more than casual fans.

Great tablet for internet

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought the Surface RT to be a hand-held internet device to use around the house. I haven't used it for the traditional Windows products (Excel, Word, etc.), so I am not factoring that into my review. A criticism of Windows tablets is the lack of apps available. For me, that isn't important because I connect to my home WiFi. I use Netflix, Facebook, and email through Internet Explorer, I don't need the apps. I downloaded the Kindle app, and that has worked fine. I have watched tv shows using Netflix through IE, and the picture quality is fantastic.
Microsoft has changed enough things about the interface that has caused getting used to the Surface RT difficult. There were settings that came activated at purchase that I wanted to change, but found doing so wasn't intuitive. I had to call Microsoft support, which took a couple of hours to get through. At least the technician that helped me was nice.
I bought the Surface RT at Thanksgiving, so Best Buy had the price drastically marked down. I feel this was a great value purchase. I wouldn't pay more to get an Apple or Android tablet because the Surface RT accomplishes what I wanted.

Great mp3 player

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this to replace my old click-wheel iPod that had decreasing battery life. This nano has half the storage, but is much smaller in size. The 16 GB is more than I need because I haven't loaded all of my photos. This does hold all 2,780 songs and 1,800 photos with 2 GB left. The touch screen has great clarity and is responsive. The addition of FM radio is also nice.
The reason I deducted one star is due to Apple removing the dock connector port. This has Bluetooth, but older devices (treadmills, clocks) won't be compatible. The cord is also now Lightning instead of the older, wider connector. That requires me to keep an additional cord laying around for my older nano that I also use.
