Yes......I went out and bought the 5 disc UK import when in materialized over here. I listen to the thing periodically.

Erm...didn't we bitch BEFORE it came out?
Got it for the original Confusion, the Ricic mix of Paradise and the 5th disc... at least
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.
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.
Yeah got mine last year off E-Bay.Paid about £20 for the 5 Disc jobby.Do agree it was a missed opportunity,but the book's good and the Dance/live/bonus disc are good.

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
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.

Yes, and that is why we got a 5th CD ;)
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...
