I returned one of the sets. We thought it was a set of the 1st 40 years of the RollingStones music group.


4 out of 5 stars Great content. Mediocre software.   December 18, 2008
  0 out of 1 found this review helpful

Have every issue of Rolling Stone magazine for 40 years available to me in such a compact package is absolutely great. The interviews. The music reviews. Classic Hunter Thompson. Classic P.J. O'Rourke. Even a bit of Matt Taibbi. The coffee table book is very nice, as well. All together in a nice sturdy box.

The only issue that I have is with the Bondi software. It takes a while to fire up in Windows XP. Also, if the DVD is already in my drive when the Bondi program is started, it won't recognize it. I have to eject the disc and re-insert it. There are other aspects to the software that irk me, but they are minor quibbles.

For anyone who likes reading old Rolling Stone mags and has a decent computer, this is a great buy.

I think the discount was worth the wait, I'm glad I waited rather than following my impulse to buy it off the shelf at my local book store. I will in the future check the amazon website before making a similar purchase. The wait was only a few days vs. instant gratification.
The 40 dollars savings was great and the book plus 4 disks are a outstanding value. Art



2 out of 5 stars Bondi reader not wroking   October 13, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Okay! So I go ahead and purchase the Rolling Stone Cover to Cover DVD set. Put the Bondi install disc in my DVD drive and it won't install. I should have listened to all those who complained about this reader. I've contacted the company for a replacement which should not have been necessary. WHoever said these should be .pdf files is correct.


5 out of 5 stars NO PROBLEMS!   September 28, 2008

For the price, you can not beat this product. 40 years of the magazine including ads. I spent a few hours when I first got it and I already feel like I have my money's worth.
Just to comment on three of the reviews I read here.
1. If you can not read all the discs or the program works slowly, it is your system. PERIOD.
2. If you can't find the way to copy the DVDs to your hard drive, you may want to give up on using a computer. Here's how you do it. Click on FILE and then select COPY DISC TO HARD DRIVE. Wow, that is SO COMPLICATED. Sorry for being so negative, but I am really disturbed by people who sit down to write a negative review when they didn't take the time to look into the problem, or when they are too "challanged" to understand it.
3. If you are printing 2 pages on one 8/5" by 11" page, of course you can't read it. Change to "Read Mode" or "Page Mode" before you print and print one page on a page and you will be able to read it.
