PDC Conference DVD
Well I got my PDC Conference DVD after nearly a 3 month wait (4-6 weeks was the estimate). I may be a little naive but I thought this was something to look forward to. Boy was I wrong. What a total waste of $200! Granted it wasn’t my $200 but a waste nonetheless. Basically the DVD contains everything you can get for free on MSDN. Where is the video!? Every session I sat in had a big professional looking video camera in the back presumably taping these sessions. I figured a 2 DVD set would contain at the very least the keynote videos, but they conatin bupkis. The video from the sessions would be nice to have as well because you could actually see the demos as they are running them.
The one redeeming thing about having the DVD is that I can view the sessions offline on the train, which isn’t that big of a deal.
Live and learn.
Lucky I didn’t buy it then.
For that kind of money, you’d think it would contain the videos.
btw: have you received your “top 5 talks” DVD that they said would ship after the event?
I didn’t hear about a “top 5 talks” DVD, and I haven’t received one either. Sounds interesting though.
They said that due to the popular demand of some of the talks, they would write them to DVD and send to all attendees.
Really looking forward to that.
