That's cool, I'm just getting into the Foo Fighters kind of (don't have any albums or anything, but am enjoying the songs I hear on the radio.) But why would remastering be of any concern? They are all recent albums, and most albums that are considered "remastered" didn't need to be in the first place.

Here's a thought, why not release a cd (or double cd if need be) of the b-sides, live tracks, acoustic, bbc, unreleased, etc. instead of screwing the fans who already have all of the cd's? Pearl Jam is doing just that with a b-sides/rarities double cd later this year.

Well this is good news because I still haven't bought the first album. This is BAD news because I already have the second and third. I was a little peeved when I first saw this thread but they are added a TON of stuff to the albums. 7-8 new songs on each album. When you add that all up it comes up to a whole new album!
My Colour and the Shape is VERY scratched too. While I'm not outragously happy to have to drop $20 again for two CDs I already own it'll be alright. Christmas is coming up fast.

my hope of all hopes is that the "extra material" is on a SEPARATE DISC.
these reissues that add tracks to the end of the previously recorded album, SUCKEKEKEKEKEKEKEKE.
not that I want to come off as ungrateful [cuz i'm not], but an album like Meat Loaf's "Bat Out Of Hell" begins at "Bat Out Of Hell" and ends with "For Crying Out Loud".
period.

Yes this sucks.
I have purchased all of their albums.
So if you rounded up all this b-sides etc. by buying import singles and the like for $10 a pop then you don't need these.
I would prefer to get the extras on one disc....hopefully i can copy them without spending another 45 or 50 bucks on three
albums i already have.
record company business as usual.

I would have bought these. There are EIGHT extra tracks, that's practically another album worth. Fuel tried this, and there were only 3 each and they weren't even all new songs to boot. Now THAT is a rip.

And the industry wonders why sales are down. Or why people would be intereested in downloading. Gee maybe if you stopped screwing the consumer (The Cure will be screwing me later this year with reissues with a couple of extras - on top of a rarities box set) sales would improve and downloading would not be the problem it is today.
diclaimer: I know downloading will never stop, but I know many people that download due to the screwing the industry insist upon.
I will download (which I haven't done in months) to listen to an artist/song I am not familiar with, and if I like I buy, if not I delete (or forget about on the HD til it is clean up time). Or to get an early taste of a new album to tide me over til the real deal is out.

Right on Dubya. I like the Foo Fighters but I'm not dropping ANOTHER $14.99 each on the reissues just because they have a song that they might have played only at one show or on the BBC. They could very easily release a "Rarities" CD. But NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! These albums aren't that old. Do they really warrant a re-issue at this time?It's this nickel and dime crap that the music industry is so caught up with that's the reason they are on a downward slide.
