I'll probably pick this up at some point. It's my favorite Smiths album, and in my top 10 of all time.

I never did get to see The Smiths, but in the last few years I have seen Johnny Marr play "Bigmouth Strikes Again," and Morrissey play "The Queen is Dead," so that was almost as good.

I have the Sire CD and the 2011 remastered albums box set. This looks like a cool new set but I don't want to own this for a 3rd time. Will the bonus material be offered as downloads? Might just cherry pick some of them.

EDIT: Amazon has the downloads. Might just get the live album then.

Just saw this in our last remaining record store today- back cover says the DVD includes the album in "96/24 *PMC* Stereo"!

Local record shop had a giveaway with first prize being the vinyl boxset and second prize being the cd boxset. Managed to win second place, so I went straight to ebay, flipped the cds and used that money to buy the vinyl for a grand total of about $20! Beautiful set for one of the greatest albums of all time.
