1. This should go in the Product Question thread for future refference.
2. It's mostly personal preference. What do you think is more amazing, vanishing a deck of cards before someones eyes, or moving the pips on an ordinary deck of cards again, right before their eyes? Both are excellent purchases. The teaching on Panic is extraordinary, however as a whole I liked the Distortion dvd better. Again, whatever you think you would better enjoy.
