I decided to post this for any DC fans who watch the dub. I received my DVDs today! First off, Season 5 will release 3/31. I'm watching them atm and will update info as it becomes available. I am not reviewing the first 4 cases, as they have been released. Here's a list of case names:

82 The Revengeful Robber
83 Dead Hobo
84-85 Two Times Trouble Parts 1&2
86 The Set Up
Disc 2:
87-88 Massacre Night, Parts 1&2
89 Find the Kidnap Site!
90 For the Birds
91-92 Vampire Villa Parts 1&2
Disc 3:
93 Deadly Art
94 Hospital Homicide
95-96 Mountain Fox Parts 1&2
97 The Other Girl
98 Richard's Deadly Date
Disc 4:
99-102 Jimmy Kudo Revealed Parts 1-4
103 The Farewell Wine Murder Case
104-105 Potter's Gambit, Parts 1&2

Edits:
Two-Mix is called Two Times.
The Music for Break (Insert Song) is slightly different in the English version, but the same melody. Takagi's last? name in the english version is Wilder. He is listed in the credits, but no first name, so it's either his last name or his first.

Review so far:
Break is not too bad, definitely not as good as the japanese version, but it's decent. So far, titles have not been changed. The concert hall still says Two-Mix on the banner. Yukiko still has her terrible old hag voice. The Case Preview isn't included for 106 and the Next Conan's Hints aren't included.  The DVDs overall are not that bad, and Funi seems to have done a better job at staying closer to the original Japanese script (Ignoring name changes).

Songs:
"One Wish" has been included, but they did not dub it. And, unfortunately, I would advise you not watch the ending song to the first part of Massacre Night (Ski Lodge Murder Case), as it shows who the killer is in the next part.
"Spinning the Roulette of Destiny" has a Case Closed Logo where the DC Logo was on the JP Version and is also the japanese version of the song. However, it is the slower version used in later episodes, not the original OP version.

Special Features:
Character Spotlight: Harley Hartwell (Hattori Heji)
Conan Gadgets: Glasses & Skateboard
Trailers
-Case Closed Season 5: It shows season 5 episodes, and the box art has Heji, Kazuha, and Eri.

Sounds okay, how much did it cost you?

you can easily get it for $30, I got it for $20 though. you are lucky I haven't gotten it in the mail yet, ship it already buy.com.

I'll probably be going to get it soon. Sadly I don't buy stuff online. 

I got it for $35 with shipping.

that all sounds good. However, has the acting approved?

Well, I haven't watched a lot, but the acting seems better. There are a lot of points where Rachel sounds almost exactly like Ran. I can't say I'm a big fan of Funimation's CC cast though, Conan is too girly sounding for me. The only character I find to be awful is Yukiko/Vivian because she sounds like she's in her late 50s and in the original she sounds very young. However, I would say that Sonoko and Ran have decent English voices.

where can i get this? I'm only seeing February 17 as a release date on sites like amazon

Mine just happened to ship early. I ordered it from Rightstuf.

I apologize if I was rude. 

Can you switch the language on the audio and watch it subbed? I know you could do that the first time they released DC to DVD, did they keep that feature? and how well does that work out?

all the season box sets have pure translations for the subtitles and they work perfectly.
