You are right, for some reason when I see 5.1 I automatically and wrongly assume Wilson is involved
Has Wilson ever mixed any of the new Crimson releases yet?
my music collection increased tenfolds when I switched from drug-addicts to complete nutcases.

Because then they'd just be the same thing? There'd be nothing to make it deluxe... unless you consider packaging relevant, which I wasn't even factoring in. It looks like each one just has the basic (digipack, sigh) setup for the respective number of discs. It's not a big-booklet/souvenir thing this time.
edit: looking again, I see the deluxe says "expanded booklet"--ok, that's a small difference.
The idea is that you don't have to pay for them. You can just get the BR set without DVDs and not miss any of the video/music. It's the rest of us (the ones who'd prefer DVD without Blu-Ray) who are out of luck.I don't know why the deluxe has to include 3CD/2DVD/BD. The DVDs don't include anything the BDs don't include, so if you want the BD, the DVDs are useless yet you have to pay for them.
Exactly.

Cool, the band has four major releases set up this fall, two live boxes, and the other two 80s albums on 5.1 .
Unless they are doing the two albums they released this century, I think that's it for their 40th anniversary release series. Which took seven years to finish.
Just a couple years away now from the 50th anniversary re- release series To begin
But they are producing separate sets. And it can't possibly be cheaper to produce the the 6-disc Blu-Ray + DVD version than it would the more sensible 5-disc DVD-only set. The only possible rationale here is to gouge those who need the DVD because they can't play Blu-Rays.

it is possible some configuration might appear on iTunes or other digital for less $$, too.

autobuy. loved Toronto (barring a slight issue or two) stoked for this one.
Please don't ask questions, just use google.
Never let good music get in the way of making a profit.
I'm only here to reglaze my bathtub.
i think that'll come eventually.......they've slowly migrated all their stuff to itunes and both orpheum and toronto went live on itunes, so imagine this will too as well as unlike the tour boxes it is a wide release.
still chafed how fripp and co are so bought in on blu ray that they insist for anyone getting the video that you HAVE TO GET the blu ray......it's somehow the DVD's that are considered an additional surcharge, but hey it's their call and i'm fine with the $46 i spent on this.
think about this: you get one audio performance of every song they've done on tour, so around 30 songs with this lineup, culled from all shows so hopefully the "best" performance of them all, and hopefully no repeats or minimal repeats from the toronto release in terms of performances. then on top of it, you're getting a full shows worth of video in pristine audio albeit all filmed on STATIONARY CAMERAS......but that point has been made clear that it's all stationary and not your typical concert dvd with a ton of zooming and crowd shots and rapid cuts and all that shit. so they've been clear about it........so hopefully the video portion doesn't repeat any of the performances from the audio portion and you're left with quite a hefty load of material to digest all for under the price of admission for an individual to one of their shows. i for one am excited to have it in hand in less than two months......should be a hummer!
I assume that the Blu-Ray is all regions even if I bought with Burning Shed...
