2010 video from both the Semifinals and the Finals available for order. The cost of each 2-disk set is $15. If you want both sets (4 disks total), the price is $20. The audio quality of the semifinals disk is not the best, unfortunately. However, I think that everyone will be quite pleased with the Finals audio and video quality.
