Hello Ray,
The issue here is not music or sampled music : sampling is part of every concert, I love the music of this concert almost as much as the album, and some of my favourite musicians are electronic musicians. But, in this concert, voices are not sampled : they are removed.
The issue therefore is this concert and its video : if a live concert's music is removed and replaced by another music, there is no point in gathering a public or releasing a video. The only thing they could do with this soundtrack was releasing another version of TB2 on CD. Without visuals, since the independance between what you hear and what you see can only destroy both. So if it was about cheap, commercial music, it wouldn't be important, but it is Mike Oldfield and outstanding music : a bad interpretation would have been better than a false one.
Now not every track is false, but in my opinion it cannot make any quality difference, as long as you cannot trust what you hear unless you don't see it.
Did you ever see another great musician's live choirs and lead vocals being replaced by studio voices ?
