Anybody get this yet? I've seen it listed on Amazon.com and HMV.com. Also have seen it on ebay.

What company put it out? Did the Stones or ALO authorize it?

i just got this newly-released "MRA Entertainment" version, and i sure hope the vendor will give me a refund.
i love this film, and while this version isn't the *very* worst quality i've seen, it's one of the worst.
it does seem to be more or less complete, but:
(a) it's the same scratchy picture quality and slighty out-of-synch audio you can find on any ebay copy;
(b) they didn't bother editing a film break in the middle, so you get treated to a several-second-long blackout that i've never seen even on crummy bootleg versions;
(c) they used the version with Going Home in place of Get Off of My Cloud, which - okay, i love Going Home and it works beautifully in the film, but it's not the original soundtrack; and
(d) a note on the back says "this product is not authorized or approved by the artist nor their management", which ... jeez, if it's basically just another bootleg version, there are better ones in circulation.
rats & drats - i was really looking forward to a good remastered well-edited version of this beauty.
ah well - i guess i can just keep looking forward. have some popcorn.

I have been wanting for quite a while to see "Darling." Has anyone here had any experience with marsmusik.net (good or bad)?

if you still find it in shops: go and get it, because it has already been taken off the market!
I bought it last weekend in Amsterdam and last Tuesday all copies were confiscated!

I've ordered it from my 'source' and as he deals exclusively with boots or 'legal copies' from South America etc I've no doubt this is not a legit release. Still it'll be nice to have it.
I would expect a legit version to at least have a directors commentary or something from ALO.
