I've seen it a few times, have the DVD set, and it's fantastic. One the best, if not, the best documentary I've seen. I recommned it for everyone. It's one of the best things you'll ever see.

    The CDs are great. The DVD is worth every penny. You can probably watch the entire thing in a weekend.

    My buddy and I were discussing this the other day...If you had 10 hours to kill, would you rather watch the Beatles Anthology from start to finish, or listen to every album all the way through? I said option A, he said option B.

    This is a tough choice for me. I might have to go with A. You get the music AND video footage. It's a 2-for-1 deal, really.

    I have it, it's pretty awesome. Figured it'd be blurayed by now.

    Give me the albums no questions asked. I'd hit bits and pieces of the early stuff and have time to listen to some of the later stuff 2x.

    I remember watching it when it was originally on TV, when I was like 11, and even liking it then. Great watch for any Beatles fan.
