Planet Earth....photographic heavan....Sep 06, 2010 The photographic panarama of the "Planet Earth" series is perhaps the most astounding visual experience I've ever had. With the ever-present God-like narration of Sir Richard Attenborough, this DVD will take you to corners of the Earth that sadly are quickly disappearing...glimpes of Mother Nature's spectacular colors and creations everywhere around the globe. Anyone who appreciates the thrill of cinematography above and beyond any other filmed series out there will fall in love with "Planet Earth".

Planet EarthAug 24, 2010 The BBC Video in HD DVD format did not work in the latest multi-funtion Blue-Ray DVD player.
Great product, when it finally cameAug 21, 2010 The experience of watching these videos is incredible. Watching the "Fresh Water" and "Mountain" episodes, a couple personal favorites, is an awe-inspiring, emotional, and simply fun experience. Standing in front of the TV screen during the scenes with huge high-definition shots of beautiful snow-covered peaks and foaming waterfalls makes me feel as if I'm right there. I would highly recommend this product. The only thing is that there was a bit of a delay with the delivery, and it came more than a week past the last day in the estimated arrival time. However, once it came, I can honestly say that I was impressed.

HD DVD does not work unless you have HD DVD PlayerAug 17, 2010 should have did a little more research on item. the price was very inviting. i bought 5 copies and none worked bc i dont have HD Dvd player. Blu Ray has made HD Dvds all but obsolete. but to the merchants defense, i contacted and received a full refund without issue after returning product.

Blu-ray version does not have special features, also lower grade HDAug 16, 2010 I live in U.S. but I bought this Blu-ray set from Amazon.co.uk and paid less than $30 including shipping. So it was a better deal. From what I read in the reviews, there are two BBC Blu-ray versions, both were narrated by David Attenborough. One version contains four discs. The other contains five discs. The version I bought from Amazon.co.uk contains five discs. The last disc includes two topics: Desert Lion and Snow Leopard. Each is about 40 minutes or so. However, both BBC Blu-ray versions are missing the behind scene/special features included in the DVD version. This is a big disappointment. What's more, this series was shot with a lower grade HD specification - 1080i (also known as 720p) instead of 1080p. 1080p was mistakenly printed on the covers of earlier boxes but this error was later fixed. All the boxes now have the correct format (1080i) listed. Whoever said that 1080i (720p) is visually undetectable compared to 1080p either has eye problem or is using a small TV. On a 40" or larger TV, 720i is noticeably grainier than 1080p. Compare "Planet Earth" with the new BBC series "Life" which was shot in 1080p, the difference is quite obvious.
Overall, this BBC production is fantastic, like many of the other series they did. If I am rating the DVD version (which I also own), I will give it five stars. But for the Blu-ray version, I have to cut it by two stars for its missing the special features and using the lower grade HD format.
