One of the things that I learnt in event management was to provide a microphone so the audience can go up to it and ask their questions. Also, some CEOs and top level executives, during the press conference or annual meetings would repeat/ paraphrase the questions that were asked for a couple of reasons; it buys them time to organize their thoughts, clarify if they understood the questions correctly and also, for the benefit of the audience -those who could not hear the original questions were able to pick up from where they left off loud and clear.
I also made in my earlier post about some of the problems with producing DVDs from live events. I feel that in such scenarios, the videos need to be edited or supplemented with a little "in the studio" work and post-event improvements so powerpoint presentations are clear and the hands-on part is less chaotic in terms of the zooming and shifting of the camera. Like JP and the others have said, the contents were brilliant and as with all their prior productions, were most helpful not just to trainers but the regular joe like myself. Mike and Eric certainly know their stuff. There is a learning curve to producing DVDs and I'm only too sure that they will inevitably improve on the production quality.
If I had to choose all over again whether I will buy it had I known about the average production quality, I will still fork out my cash willingly.
