 A MUST own! April 18, 2008

This is a disc set that must be purchased if you have a bluray player and HDTV. There are various cameras used, so the picture quality does vary a little bit, but overall, this is STUNNING. Great for all ages. Perfect demo material to show off your bluray player and or HDTV!
 Would love to see it March 26, 2008

I'll grant that the photography is amazing, even on my older 25 inch set. But I find that the episodes just don't hang together. Each episode's title provides a loose theme (e.g., Mountains, Fresh Water), but serves as little more than a way to group together the pretty pictures. Scenes jump between continents with little or no transition. Don't expect to learn much from the narration if you've ever watched any nature shows before.
This Version is Missing Content! February 13, 2008

A friend of mine showed me this series on DVD. I was so impressed I couldn't wait to purchase the Blu-Ray version and watch it at 1080p resolution. It turns out that not every scene is filmed in high definition, which is understandable given the conditions of some of the filming. What REALLY disappointed me about this version, however, is that much of the content is missing! The DVD version has a short documentary piece after each section that shows how the filming was done. This is actually some of the most interesting content. It's incredible, for example, how many days a photographer spent hiding in a blind to film a rare bird in the Amazon. When I got the Blu-Ray set I searched and searched but all this "making of" content is not included!
