Would like to purchase this, but what am I going to get 15 minutes of video? Amazon would you please include the video length. I've seen 15 minute videos listed on this site for $25.

12/19/2012 Update
My previous (2010) attempt to update this apparently didn't take.
Amazon has correctly updated the length to 57 minutes.
.
The video is standard definition full screen (720x480, 4:3), 29.970 fps, NTSC, interlaced.
The audio is 16 bit, two channel, PCM, 48k sampling.
.
I am a more willing/appreciative audience than most as I will be retiring in the Philippines someday. I enjoyed this video even though its not in the same league with Rudy Maxa, Rick Steves', Burt Wolf, etc. They however would not normally venture off the beaten path to cover areas like Palwan. There are not many videos of the Philippines. Of the few I have found, many are old and of poor video quality. This, while standard def is better quality than two thirds of the Philippine video I have watched. The content will not appeal to those who want to lay on the beautiful white beaches of Boracay for days on end; nor those whom wish to see the cities and upscale eateries. Those who have a greater interest in the Philippines may like myself appreciate this video.
.
Here is a list of the other Philippine related videos I am aware of:
Fantastic Festivals - Harvest Festivals - Philippines (bluray & dvd directly from Marc Pingry Productions)
Tarsier: The Littlest Alien (here on Amazon, directly from Longtail - preview on youtube)
Globe Trekker - The Philippines (here on Amazon and also dvd directly from producer)
Global Tribe - Philippines (from Global Tribe)
The Philippines Pearls of the Pacific (VHS, Amazon)
.
Hope this helps a little.
