Guns N' Roses - DVD Collector's Box Review

This was the blurb used to sell this DVD. Reading that, I kind of expected to see something relating to Guns n' Roses that I hadn't seen before. I'm sad to say I was sorely disappointed.
The first warning sign appeared before the documentary even started, as when I pressed play, a disclaimer appeared on the screen stating that the DVD contained NO MUSIC BY GUNS N'ROSES as it was an unauthorized documentary (I'm not paraphrasing). I was then bombarded by interviews with people who claimed to have "hung out" with the band in their early days, edited together with old newspaper and magazine photos of the band and occasional footage from the Use Your Illusion tour (Without any sound). What's the point of showing Guns n' Roses concert footage without sound? The only time you actually hear band members speak is in a really old interview which has absolutely no bearing on the documentary at all.
What I'd really like to know is, where is this "never-before-seen performance footage" that's mentioned in the sales blurb? I learned nothing new from this DVD. All that's talked about in the documentary could quite easily have been picked up in an hour or so on Google. The publishers of this DVD are nothing more than opportunists trying to cash in on the re-emergence of Guns n' Roses. Amazon and other retailers should perhaps make it clearer that this is unauthorized, and doesn't even contain any music by the band. People might think twice about wasting their money.
For now, all I'll say is: If like me you are a true Guns n' Roses fan, DO NOT BUY THIS DVD.
