The Fleetwood Mac DVD-A is indeed a great sounding disk. But then, so was the LP release when it first came out. I have not compared the various formats, but you probably can't go wrong with any of them.The DVD-A does give you introductions and/or discussion by the band members regarding the specific tracks. I believe there are additional tracks and a few mixes that are different from the original. It also provides you with a 5.1 surround format which is top notch.
I cannot vouch for the 2 channel rendition of the DVD-A Mac disk. If that is what interests you, you might want to check to see if its a "fold down" stereo track, If so, I'd avoid it and go with the CD. Also, I was not at all happy with the multi channel "Harvest" format. Reminded me of music processed through an ambience extractor. Not that thats so bad, but its not why I buy MC DVD-As.
