"This DVD IS NOT LEGAL. the videos were stolen off the internet from File-sharing programs. They figure, "Oh, she's dead. no use paying for her work" (albums, movies, etc). Well I say, F&*^ THEM!!!!!!!!!! I tried to sell this to a local store that buys used dvds not knowing it was an illegally made DVD and the owner kicked me out. I noticed there was an address where this dvd was made. Anyone who owns this, I would strongly advise you to report this to the police"

Not as good as it looks

"This set is way to good to be true. I bought this collection and two others thinking, jokingly, that they were bootlegs. But they were advertised in the paper of a major store (which shall go nameless) and I figured I was just being paranoid. But then on closer inspection, I actually sampled some of the videos.

In the case of the Aaliyah set, you think maybe it's a really good collection, it just happens to be on a no-name company (and, in fact, there is literally no company name on the DVD). It includes nearly all her hits. The only ones missing are "Resoultion", "Hot Like Fire" (which are both sorely missed) and her shockingly bland interpertation of "Got To Give It Up" (with a worse video). But what's included is impressive. So I watched "More Than A Woman" and it looked very good. Then I tried "Are You That Somebody", argueably her most memorable and biggest hit. The video was darker than the original but it was still good until about half way through where it cuts off to a blue screen that say "Goodbye Aaliyah"....this is not acceptable! For this reason alone, this video should be left on the shelf. I have not looked at further videos but I wouldn't be surprised if they also cut off too soon.

That being said, the addition of lost videos like "Journey Through the Past" might be worth it, even if the video is low quality. Someone mentioned this DVD as if it were only targeted at Aaliyah....not true! The "The Best Music Videos On DVD" collections are out on various artists, including the much alive Eminem and Janet. The only thing is, I would say that unargably, Aaliyah's looks the most complete (but looks are ver decieving). I'm not sure at all how these work but they look very questionable legally. Even if they are sold at major stores and through here, buyer beware."

It's really not that bad

"I know alot of the viewers are going to disagree with me, but I saw no problem with the dvd. I thought it was a good collection because it had a good variety of videos on there. The quality wasn't bad to the point that it was not watchable. Anyone who is a Aaliyah fan should purchase it. If you are a litte skeptical about it, do what I did and get a used one. I only paid 4 dollars for it, and it was well worth it."

"Not the greatest quality, but if you want to get a few videos you may have not have been lucky to get of her, I would buy it. I was disappointed because I wanted Summer Bunnies, it is not on there. The box is misleading, and the people who rated this item did not rate it honest. Summer Bunnies is not on this DVD. Very disappointing. I had all of her videos. Thank God, it was only $8."
