The three-DVD set features five hours of content including spectacular live footage from Usher's Truth Tour performance in his home town of Atlanta. It also provides an in-depth view of his life from the early years to his evolution into a living legend and a savvy businessman. Finally, the DVD set wraps with a behind-the-scenes look at the superstar's charitable work in the community. It offers something for everyone.

"Usher fans have been waiting for a DVD that provides both electrifying performances and insight into the entertainer himself," says Rick Lotman, VP of Merchandising & Marketing for Future Shop. "At Future Shop, we are pleased to be one of only two select retailers to have the DVD on the shelves before the holiday season, allowing our customers to get it first."

The high-energy Truth Tour was shot with 16 high definition cameras and directed by acclaimed music video guru, Hamish Hamilton. The DVD includes state-of-the-art interactive features from MX Entertainment that gives the viewer more choice and more control of their DVD concert experience by featuring five Select-a-Cam songs that offer Usher close-ups, intimate dancer shots and concert visuals from chart-topping hits including "Burn", "U Remind Me" and "My Way". The DVD set also includes the world premiere of a new MX DVD technology that lets viewers direct their own version of "Caught Up" using their remote control.

Truth Tour comes on the heels of Usher's 2004 LP, Confessions, which has sold fifteen million copies worldwide to date. The three-DVD set's attractive price point of $29.99 is sure to appeal to Usher's ever-expanding fan base. Usher's career has spanned more than a decade and he is on his way to becoming the top-selling R&B artist of all time. His raw blend of rock, pop, sex appeal, flash and classic soul/blues makes him a fascinating musical entity. As a singer, dancer and actor he is a true triple threat.
