That was sooooooo poor and careless of them. I remember getting the US import copy of TVAB 2 weeks before it came out here.

Yeap, it sure has, but without any new vids - its essentially the same as the video, just on DVD. There are more bjork dvds to come though - although when they actually (if ever) get released locally is another question. You can import them through www.hmv.co.uk though, theres 3 DVD singles, Hidden Place, Pagan Poetry and Coccoon. Though I would suggest you get them from somewhere other than hmv.co.uk, cause I have a vendetta against hmv.
