I'll admit that it's been a year or two since I actually read an issue and longer than that since I followed along with the music and musicians written about in it's pages but I really loved Rolling Stone when I was a teenager. It's 4 DVD's and it's said to be compatible with MAC's as well as PC's (not at Amazon but at Boing Boing) but I really feel maybe $78.75 is a little steep for something selfish for myself. What do you think?

I guess Rolling Stone has never covered Kate Moss.... or is it the other way around?

Actually, it does say on Amazon...

I'd certainly buy it from Amazon.com rather than Amazon.co.uk, where the price is 56.34GBP - around $115 at current exchange rates!
Found it at better UK price at The Book Depository, where one comment warns

It is crucial to have enough RAM on your PC or laptop, otherwise the BONDI CD-ROM reader will take ages to load or not load on sufficiently.
Oooh, it's so tempting.....
