The special was released as Aguilera's second video album through RCA Records and Image Entertainment. [3]
According to a DVD Talk review: the DVD delivers a solid audio and video presentation, and while the concert is shown in full-frame rather than anamorphic widescreen, the video quality remains sharp and well-defined throughout, with clear stage lighting and minimal visual issues. [4] The backstage footage is of slightly lower quality, but the concert footage itself holds up well. [4] The audio is available in Dolby Digital 5.1, DTS 5.1, and Dolby 2.0, with the 5.1 mixes. [4] The front speakers focus on the music, while the surround channels handle crowd noise and ambient sounds. [4] The DTS track offers slightly better depth and clarity. [4] The DVD also includes animated menus and a few Spanish-language music videos as extras. [4]
The video album became a commercial success, being certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) [5] and platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) [6] as well as reaching number one and eight respectively in the music video charts of those regions.
