I want to add a thought that is on my mind for many months.
I think in all the discussions about why a song is only released as a bonus track and about how they are released in so many exclusive, deluxe and whatever versions the most important thing is being forgotten:
That they are released at all!
RPD and SL only had one and KTGC had none at all.
Who knows what pearls have been recorded and put away forever.
I'm so grateful that we have this irrational deluxe box strategy and I'm willing to pay for it, because to me the bonus tracks mean sooo much.

After reading the thread title I expected another content: More about how to deal with those PM questions after COPYRIGHTED material here on AMIT..

This is another matter I didn't intend to be discussed here and I hope this thread does not hopelessly carried away with.
So please, this would be another thread "Copyright infringement on the forum?" not this one.

It's great of course to have 18 New tracks. After the Privateering Double I never expected so much new stuff from Mark. :thumbsup

Since you mentioned that, I think AMIT copyright policy is complete tilting at windmills. When this stuff is all over Internet already, why bother?
Nobody can beat that. But, I know German laws are very bad at this, so I believe it's OK for Germany.
As for topic goes, why you can say what there WAS bonus tracks for RPD or Shangri-La theoretically? I think there was no leftovers at all exept Summer of Love.

Even my chords is all over the internet with different authors name on it. People just take it, delete my email and write theirs. I don't know why.

Welcome to the real world - not like it used to be.. :disbelief

It's not really a bad thing, when used right. I believe Monty Python was managed to multiply their DVD sales just by putting it in its completeness on YouTube officially with buying links. And there was huge burst of sales then. I think this — is the future. Not trying to avoid piracy, but to be a pirate himself.
It's like old saying: to beat something, just lead it.

As for the topic subject itself, I'm grateful there's a lot of releases. Being from Brazil, before the facilities of Internet times I didn't have access to singls b-sides, special editions of whatever. To get DS leftovers or b-sides, for instance, I had to dig a lot.
Last but not least, I don't know if there were many unreleased songs from DS times, but can you imagine if the policy back then was to release everything? I don't have the information of BiA leftovers, but I guess they didn't record only nine songs at that time.

BIA was a bit of a mess to record, I am not sure about leftover. But Making Movies was at first intended by Mark to be a double album. So there was many songs leftover at that time without knowing how many were actually rehearsed, then demoed, and then recorded to finally being outtaked before being recycled into the LOG album or DbTP Ep.

I think a lot more was written, but not recorded and recorded as a just demo solo by MK around that time, instead of recording it with the entire band.. Very well possible we know almost all recorded songs from that era.

This is what makes more sense to me. I think it's impossible that he had written just nine songs.

Maybe if someone had thought about release boxes like now, some songs that were out from that records and forgot God knows where would had seen the light of day...
