Is anyone else somewhat dissapointed with Biggest Bang?

First off, let me say that I do enjoy this DVD, but I have a few gripes that kind of ruin it for me. First off, why was the entire 2005 leg of the bigger bang tour pretty much neglected? I would have love to seen some footage from the North American arenas and stadiums that were played from August-December of '05. Zilker Park is really the only gem on this DVD. The quality is amazing, and the setlist probably appeals to most stones fans. Keith singing learning the game is truly a gem! I believe that RIO should have been left off this DVD, but I understand why they put it on. What was dissapointing was the fact that if you are a stones fan and go on youtube, chances are you've seen the Rio show. (It's been on there since March '06, although I think it has just been recently taken down) Same thing can be said about Saitama, but that truly was a magical show. Also, I was SOOO excited to see that there would be footage from Buenos Aires. BA was also on youtube before the release of the DVD, and I was hoping that it wasn't the same material, but sadly it was. The quality is SO bad that is makes it almost unenjoyable. Very dissapointed that the stones did not even film it up to RIO quality. Also, China was very nice, especially enjoyed was Cui Jian butcher the last verse in Wild Horses and watch Mick takeover. Finally, I felt as if the docementary was rushed and did not find it nearly as interesting as Four Flicks. Overall, I felt Four Flicks was an all together better package than biggest bang
