I don't see anything too incendiary about this piece. I'm guessing if someone is really put off by this article, it's hitting close to home.

Musicdirect has this for $92. So that Amazon price will come down a bit.

But isn't that the point of the board? To try to engage in a discussion. If no one wants to engage or there is no interest, the thread drops never to be heard of again. If there is interest (and out of 4 pages, there seems to be a least 2 pages of genuine interest or at least discussion about) the topic thrives.
 
Like beatnik said above the demo of the board does seem to be people who grew up in the 90s who have a nostalgia for that era. So I don't think its unreasonable to try this thread here at VC. While anecdotal, I used to like BT in the 90s. I don't anymore, and I'm not getting these. But I'm happy to follow the discussion even though its not my thing anymore. 
 
Now if you are talking about dumping all the non punk stuff and making this back to a punk oriented board, thats another thing. But I think the natural evolution of VC is taking it away from its punk roots. I mean some of the largest threads here seem to be general vinyl discussion or label discussion that aren't necessarily punk related. I mean, the Taylor Swift thread was one of the biggest threads in this place.

I don't see how these reissues are any different than that Real Big Fish reissue. Or any of those Silverchair reissues. Or the cake box set for that matter. Some people like certain bands more than others. Getting bent out of shape because something is betting reissued or issued for the first time is silly.

I wouldn't put it past him to do this on purpose to piss off the people who are getting pissed at it selling out.

Really? I think the Bongload press sounds fantastic, which was/is rare for a mid 90s release.

The Less than Jake Cheese 7".
 
 

Kinda wish they were including the Stanley Kubrick 4 track EP in this set too.

One outrage at a time.

I am shocked that PJ fans are getting pissy about something selling out.

Travis, any chance you may do a Saludos Amigos/Three Caballeros LP?

Great that REM was bumped to 2500. May still be tough to get, but not impossible.

Mine just came. Sounds great. Looks nice too.

At this point though (a week out from the list being released), are there usually many differences between the official list and new-vinyl.blogspot list? 

I wish they would recut Alligator and Boxer into nice 2 Lps like HV and TWFM. Alligator and Boxer sound like ass.

I'd buy this with no hesitation. 

Strictly Discs has it listed at 1000.
Bull Moose says RSD exclusive, so I hope it's more of an exclusive window as opposed to just an RSD release.

Understatement of the year

Yeah, but Liam is always the contrarian and always angry.
I love Noel's description of him. He's man with a fork in a world of soup.
