and we never will

So these "never released before" vinyl records will be made out of a digital master, right?

Trying hard not to complain. It's actually nice that they do something. But out of coincidence they draw the line just before the pricey box sets with the super special b-sides were released...🤔

So dissapointed... even when they add a bonus, they put something that already exists, instead of include something new... not even ONE new song...

Milking the cow.
You might get lucky, now and then

In the email newsletter there were also pictures of t-shirts with the title of the collection. (When clicked it led to a 404 page in the Shop.)

Who on earth would like to have a t-shirt that looks like MK's career ended in 2007?

I'd like to have them individually, not having to extract them from a box. For a collector, what is in a box belong to the box!

I think this is ridiculous anyway. CDs in 2021? Come on... These vinyl records are most certainly transfers from digital, "remasters" made absolutely nothing to the recordings, it sounds 100% identical. So what's the point? The last time I played CD was somewhere in 2010 or so. The design is questionable, to say the least, bonuses are minuscule. Just give people a full discography in awesome packaging in 24 bits! Like The Beatles did a million years ago with their collection in the form of an apple. Jeez...

Yep me too.
Those new t-shirts are awful though.

We're not all into vinyl.  Alas, it's no longer a let down.

£30 for a T-shirt. Not a chance would I pay that.
