Sony Legacy have released a series of DVDs combining hit Christmas albums from the Sony vaults with "your choice of three heart-warming holiday scenes". The series includes albums from
Mariah Carey,
Elvis Presley,
Johnny Mathis,
Andy Williams, and
REO Speedwagon among others
.
I'm tempted to pick one of these up since the price is right (less than $12), and I'm a total Yule Log addict. I'm a bit put off by the fact that you only get one album per disc, less than an hour of music seems like a missed opportunity. I tend to leave videos like these running in the background for hours at a time, often with my own music playing . There's no way I want to hear even my favorite Christmas LP over and over again all day. I'd have also preferred Blu-Ray, or at least a combo disc.
Here's Amazon's list of Sony's Yule Log DVDs
I'll probably go with the compilation

I could probably handle this song selection a couple of times in a row if I had to.
