The main feature of the Criterion disc is not in widescreen so maybe this is a brand new transfer.

S.T.P
Hopefully the new songs will be in great sound...

>If memory serves, the extra songs on the region 1 version were low-quality extras with portions of sound missing
Memory does not serve -- the audio was complete but parts of the footage was missing.

But since this new version will be a PAL disc, I hope it won´t be running 4% fast with increased soundtrack pitch (-> see also: European Shine A Light DVDs).

Both amazon.co.uk and play.com now list these special features besides a 36 page booklet:
Special Features
• Audio commentary by directors Albert Maysles and Charlotte Zwerin, and collaborator Stanley Goldstein
• 1969 KSAN Radio broadcast of Altamont wrap-up (with excerpts from then-DJ Stefan Ponek)
• Backstage outtakes of the Rolling Stones at Madison Square Garden in New York City
• Trailers
So no mention of the 3 extra songs. Did they just copy the features of the 2000 Criterion release out of laziness? I'm gonna wait pre-ordering for a while...

So much for the three new tracks!!
...none of these tracks are on the disc!!!!
No, it's just the same old extras as the Criterion release. So where did this misinformation spring from?
Oh well, at least I didn't shell out dosh to find this out. BEWARE anyone else excited by the mythical tracks on this thread!
