Reviews - What do customers think about A Charlie Brown Christmas [Blue-ray]?

	Incredible picture, wonderful content, HORRIBLE audio  Dec 31, 2009
The two star rating has NOTHING to do with the show itself, which is the PERFECT Christmas special, hands down (each year I expect the networks to edit out Linus' speech about Christmas' true meaning.) Instead, I would recommend that people stay away from this Blu-ray for one reason: the audio. In an effort to create a 5.1 surround audio mix, the music in this special, perhaps some of the most well-known and most perfect ever created, sounds as if it were reprocessed into "simulated stereo" with a noticeable, horrible "echo" added behind the "center" channel used for the dialog. As the disc does not provide an original mono track, there's no way to revert back to the original audio - even if you sum the channels in your preamp or receiver to create a mono track, the horrid "echo" in the music track persists. If this disc were rereleased with a mono audio track option I'd say it's perfect; at present I'd recommend keeping your DVD copy. I'd have returned it to this site if I had known, and if I can save one person from buying this disc with this issue, it's a good thing. (For the truly obsessed, you could always sync up a DVD (with the as originally shown mono audio track) for audio to go with the BD's pristine picture...)
	"Digital Copy" not compatible with iPod or Macs ("Windows Media only")  Dec 27, 2009
Classic TV special, but the promise of a "digital copy" is misleading. On the back of the cardboard slipcover, in tiny print, is listed this limitation: "Windows Media-compatible only." It is implausible that a consumer would come across this disclaimer when making a purchase decision based in part on the overtly advertised inclusion of a "digital copy," a term most consumers associate with the ability to view media on an iPod.
	Charlie Brown Christmas  Dec 26, 2009
One of my favorite Christmas shows of all time! Great service from the provider.
	Digital Copy Not Compatible w/Macs????  Dec 25, 2009
I really wanted to give this product a one-star review, but the episode is such a classic that I can't bring myself to. "A Charlie Brown Christmas" is, hands down, the most wonderful Christmas special ever. Period. That fact makes this tepid attempt at a Blu-ray release all the more upsetting! The one thing above all that really cheesed me off was that the touted "digital copy" IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH MACS!!!! How ridiculous is that? The most ubiquitous device upon which you can load digital copies is the iPod; the iPod is a Macintosh product. It stands to reason that digital copies would be compatible with Macs (as indeed every other digital copy I've ever experienced has been). But NO, not with this one. Preposterous. The next thing that was upsetting was that the price you pay for this is far, far too high for the limited content. By way of comparison, for one dollar more, we purchased the Star Trek movie (the new one) Blu-ray edition; it is a 3-disc special edition with over three hours of special features, plus a digital copy (that works on PC AND Macs!!!!). With this, you get two discs; the episode in Blu-ray and a standard DVD of the episode; an additional crappy Peanuts Christmas special (truly awful), a 10 minute making-of featurette; and of course the useless digital copy. THAT'S IT. For $19. RIP-OFF!!! I have to believe that at some point, either the price will come way down or WB will release a proper Blu-ray execution of this Christmas classic. My recommendation: save your money and wait for them to do it right!
	MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!  Dec 24, 2009
In honor of today being Christmas Eve, I thought I'd review this classic. This is another childhood favorite. When Charlie Brown feels that Christmas has gone too commercial, Lucy gets him to direct the school Christmas play. When he gets a crappy little Christmas tree for the play, everyone is mad at him, and wants to know what Christmas is all about. I highly recommend A CHARLIE BROWN CHRISTMAS!!!
