Very good quality; film cell didn't make much sense, and vinyl smaller than expected., Dec 24 2010

The only issue I had with this set, is when I opened it, one of the CDs had fallen out along with the booklet, and bent the pages a bit. Other than that, I'm very much impressed!The sheet music is different for everyone; I got "Detonators". It has a 100% REAL autograph on it by Desplat! I honestly didn't catch that part when I ordered it, which makes this totally worth the money. (Not a big fan of the fact it's on glossy paper, but if it was on REAL sheet music, the signature would bleed and smear easily.)
I thought the actual printed vinyl would have been normal size, not the mini kind -- but it's wonderful nevertheless. Harry on one side, and the burning Hogwarts on the other <3
The film cells are FANTASTIC -- I've been stuck with cells that have sucked, but these are perfectly centered and cut. I had a cell of Voldemort holding onto Harry's face, and the second is Hermione putting up the wards in the forest with Harry kneeling next to Ron behind her.
I was a bit confused at first, seeing as the Harry and Voldy scene was NO WHERE in the first part of the movie...
But it's still awesome! :)

Worthless junk, sent back for a refund, Feb 1 2011

Why is there no Zero Stars option? I hate to be the voice of gloom, but this is a piece of junk.First: The Content
You can be safely happy with the existing single-CD album. The 15 mins of bonus cues here are nice, but there's a reason they were left off the main album, aside from space considerations. They're the least interesting parts of an already subdued score and I honestly couldn't remember them even as I listened to them.
And while the 5.1 disc sounds a bit better than the CD, it's not an actual Audio DVD using the full disc, just a 700mb 5.1 video file, it seems. Unless you really want any of the various paper tchotchkes, there's nothing here worth the money.
Second: The Packaging
Simply the worst I've ever encountered for a CD. The three discs are slid, completely loose, into a cheap paper insert. Naturally, the 5.1 disc that I really cared about had come loose in shipping and arrived badly scratched. And the "Certificate of Authenticity" is slid in the other side of the paper insert, so if you insert it it'll scratch up the other discs. Terrible design.
The outer box itself is decent quality, but the stuff inside is all paper, not even cardboard, super-cheap, and the swag really is useless - sheet music with a fake scanned autograph, a film cell and an LP. The box is also, for no reason, the size of about ten LPs stacked on top of each other, so I don't have a shelf anywhere it would fit on.
I called the Amazon 800 number (which is nowhere on their website, but can be found by Googling) and arranged to send the entire useless set back for a full refund, at their expense as it had arrived damaged. It was pointless to ask for a replacement set, as numerous people here and at other sites have illustrated the discs would have arrived scratched again due to the incompetent packaging design by the record label.
I was so excited when this was announced, but that excitement was already tempered when I saw how little new material was in it. It was completely gone when I opened the box to find an expensive collection of scratched, useless junk.
This thing is a waste of money. Anyone else out there on the fence, save yourself now and cancel your order.

Not Impressed, Dec 23 2010
By WolfCreature13 - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Soundtrack (Audio CD)
This set is really a rip on several levels. First off, the packaging, while it looks neat and pretty, is very poorly designed. When you open the case, odds are that your cds and dvd have fallen out of the sleeve since nothing is really holding them in, and when the set is closed, they're upside down. My dvd was flapping around inside the box and was quite scratched. The "Sheet Music" from the recording session is a photocopy with a pixelated signature on it. Also printed on basically a glossy paper, which recording session paper is not! I also received the Dementors track, so I'm sure anyone who buys this will get the same sheet music! The picture disc is cool, and of course the cds are cool too, but certainly NOT worth the money. This set should be at most a 40 dollar set! There is nothing inside it of any great value! I'll be returning mine and just ordering the regular cd.
Listmania!
