Transfer Notes: Transfer 1 has a slightly better picture quality while Transfer 2 has higher quality audio. The contents are also different as can be seen above. Transfer 1 is featured on the Prime Time compilation.
Review: This DVD features all the footage relating to the 1992 MTV Video Music Awards. This is sourced from the original broadcast, the "Rape Me" intro was edited out of re-broadcasts. The camera work is excellent throughout, and the picture and audio is also very good for all sections.
