Must-have for any Sara Bareilles fan

"I can only give a review based on the 720p resolution since my TV isn't 1080p. But from what I saw, this is a wonderfully produced Blu-ray disc of the Sara Bareilles concert. There weren't any noticeable artifacts at all during the concert as the picture was very clear. However, during some of the non-concert scenes, the picture does seem a little darker, but that may be a result of the lighting during these scenes or the video settings on my PS3 (this is the first blu-ray disc I've played on it, so I'm not really sure if there are any video settings on the PS3 or not yet). The audio sounded amazing in Dolby Digital 5.1.

Overall, this is a very good Blu-ray disc that any Sara Bareilles fan would be happy to own. My only gripe with the disc is that there are only 12 songs in the concert here. From what I understand, there were more songs that she performed at the actual concert than there is included in this disc. The bonus CD was also a nice little extra."

Excellent Audio and Video - Very Talented Singer/Songwriter

"Excellent Blu-Ray Disc. Audio quality was excellent with LPCM, my receiver doesn't support TrueHD, but the 640kbps Dolby sounded as good as can be expected. There were not any issues with the location in this final recording as mentioned by a previous reviewer. Sarah is a very talented singer/songwriter and a lot of her personality comes out in her presentation--which kept me entertained! Three of the songs are also recorded in 1080p as accoustic versions on a houseboat on the bay. These made an excellent addition to the film! Also included was a bonus Audio CD with the concert on it, I have not sampled it!"

Blu Ray is even better than the already great non blu ray.

"If you have an HD TV and a nice sound system, picking up the blu ray is well worth it. I own the standard copy and thought I would pick up the blu ray to see if I could notice any difference. First, I have a blu ray player which upconverts so the picture on the non blu ray version looked plenty good. But there is a very noticeable difference when playing the blue ray. It is so crystal clear. A concert is the perfect situation to get a blu ray as I don't always need movies to be this clear as I like a little production value. This is so well shot you won't regret getting the blu ray from a visual perspective.

Second is the sound. This blu ray comes with the choice of PCM and True HD when selecting the audio set up. I believe my receiver plays True HD as it has all the latest bells and whistles. I am not an audiophile but the sound is noticeably different with the blu ray. It is even more clear and crisp. You can hear every detail of all instruments playing simultaneously. And Sara's amazing voice is so crystal clear coming through the center channel speaker. The base seems a little more powerful on this HD version as well. Any Sara fan will be in true heaven listening to this blu ray version of the Filmore live concert."
