I think just about everyone on here bought it when it came out and spent the next few months whinging about it :laugh:

Got it for the original Confusion, the Ricic mix of Paradise and the 5th disc... at least :hooky: signed mine in November.

Agreed , there was loads of bitching about it which in the end resulted in the 5th disc being added very late , true?

Have the 5 cd set, but as with much of my stuff, ripped it then sold it...no reason to have cds anymore.

I had it bought for me, but if I hadn't, I'd have probably bought it anyway.

yes I bought the 5 disc version. Love it, yes it could have been better, but it is what it is.

Yes, I bought it, and the longer I look at it, the more I hate it.

Missed opportunity par excellence.

Bought the 5 disc set on the day of release, left it sealed, opened it last year to find out I had 2 of the pop discs!

5 disc version for me. Primarily bought for the bonus disc and a couple of the tracks esp Paradise Racic mix which I have on vinyl.

It got me back into the band. I didn't buy Get Ready. Forgotten all about them, to be honest.

Whether that's a good thing... discuss.

I'm not sure if I did... sure thing is I have 3 copies, 1 UK, 2 US (one still sealed)

I think I bought the UK one off Amazon.

All 3 have the bonus CD.

you feel like selling one of the us ones,spot?

Considering it's sealed, I don't think so :p

Though if I remember right, the US promo I got had the bonus disk apart.

In fact, I think it was fcut on the 3rd one and I just thought 'fcuk it' and kept it anyways.

and the Dance cd is actually the only one worth listening too :nod: The other 4 are a waste of time.

Not sure about that...

The bonus disc is worth it, Disc 1 (or is it 2) is worth it because Brutal is on it and I didn't buy The Beach OST.

Of course Disk 4 is worth it, though it's not a complete show, but considering how rare it is for NO to release live stuff, it's better than nothing.

As for Disc 3... beside Paradise's remix, that's just a bunch of edited remixes available elsewhere.

I bought the London 5 CD set.

And I don't care whether someone thinks I'm a "true fan" or not.

Yes, for the wife's birthday. Wasn't expecting the fifth CD, but glad it was there!

BTW - I'm pretty positive I can hear my wife screaming on the live tracks from the Gold Coast (Big Day Out). She was there right at the front...
