Summary: Almost perfect except for two things.
Review: The good things about this DVD:
--a slew of videos for songs from the blindingly popular PLAY CD, including two or three that haven't been seen before in the US.
--an uproariously funny short film called "Give An Idiot A Camcorder", which suggests that if Moby stops making music, he could always be a talk-show host
--a superfine hour-long megamix of remixes of Moby songs (the mix is done by Moby, BTW), complete with futuristic high-tech visuals (which are also nice background eye candy for house parties)
--live performances by Moby from the British JOOLS HOLLAND show
--DVD-ROM goodies (which admittedly, I don't have the capability to try out just now)the cons:
--there are a couple of videos missing: the 3rd version of BODYROCK (involving Run-DMC and a magic pair of glasses that turns everyone into a Solid Gold dancer) and the video for SOUTH SIDE with Gwen Stefani. Dern. --the submenu for audio setup chucks you straight into the videos after you make your selection between stereo or 5.1. Aside from these two tiny gripes, it's nice. Buy it.

Summary: Great
Review: The videos and music are one thing. The sound alone is another. The "Give an Idiot a Video Camera" is in a class all it's own. A definite must for any Moby fan. First off, the videos: AWESOME!!! The audio on this DVD is a perfect example of why DVD was created in the first place. The best of Moby's Play is included, amongst them: "Honey"( personal favorite), "Natural Blues"(beautiful song), "Bodyrock"(both versions hilarious), and "Porcelain"(I prefer the Eye-Version). One thing that baffled me was why "Southside" wasn't included. "Give an Idiot a Video Camera": A hilarious "documentary" created by Moby, which is a definite acquired taste. It runs 20 minutes, and kind of gave me the feel of a Guy Ritchie-type thing. Some of the funny things include Moby "interviewing himself"(Moby in a costume, asking questions, intercutting previously taped answers from himself from past intwerviews), a spoof of his house on "MTV Cribs", and the funniest, he trying to find a festival in France, resulting in calling it a Piece of Shi... numerous times. Rounding it out is a 90 minute megamix of his videos. A great pick for any Moby fan, I'm thrilled I picked it up.

Summary: Great content, slight doubt over presentation
Review: There's a lot to enjoy on this DVD, for a good price. Content is good, with numerous videos where a good idea carries the day, as opposed to eye candy and flash. Several videos have more than one version, and the differences between them are most interesting. You can speculate what market forces brought a second version of a video into being. The Mobymix offers a continuous 88 minutes of Play remixes, and comes with the modern equivalent of a "video fireplace" as trippy visuals accompany the remixes. Put this on when friends are around and let it go! Live footage looks fine. The questionable aspect with this DVD is a number of the videos seems to have come from a VHS source. Video noise, dropouts, and lack of sharpness are all there. Not all videos are this way, but quite a few are. Given the nature of music videos, its hard to tell if this was intentional, but it seems a bit odd that so many of the videos are presented this way. So - a question mark about the videos presentation, but great content and well worth a purchase.

Summary: play is worth paying for
Review: This DVD is absoluetly brilliant. the footage of "give an idiot a camcorder" was both humorous and fun. it made me literally roll on the floor with laughter. this section alone is worth the price of this dvd. the music videos are amusing and full of ironic undertones. "play: the DVD" is great for any fans of moby's music, philosophies or lifestyle. (go vegan)

Summary: Best DVD in my collection
Review: This DVD is awesome! 10 music videos including 5 unrealeased in the US. 20 song megamix with stunning visualisations, including 2 South Side remixes. Moby's self documentary is hilarious. 6 live songs, including GO, Moby's first big single. Has Stereo sound, and Dolby 5.1. You can also make your own Moby remixes with a DVD-ROM drive on your computer. Best DVD I own.

Summary: Very, very cool! Moby knows how to do it right.
Review: This is a good one - easy menus, lots of extras, good sound. I just don't understand why it's missing the clip for "South Side!" (Unless it's hidden somewhere as an "easter egg," I'm not really sure!) Anyway, this is one to buy. The "Give An Idiot A Camcorder" is my favorite part!

Summary: Moby is great but we need more
Review: This is a great Moby DVD sound is great and the videos are great but...... Where is South Side with Gwen Stefani????? Plus it could use more concert footage, maybe from his summer tour. Just my thoughts.

Summary: Are you all mad?!?
Review: This is the worst collection of videos that highlight exactly what a geek Moby is - nobody in these videos does anything, leaving the viewer wondering why they were made at all...The only good thing about it, and why I gave it 2 stars, is the remix section, which has some interesting visuals...don't waste your money on this ridiculous DVD!!
