Can anyone tell if the Digital tracks will be included in the box or have to be purchased separately?

I bet US Amazon will not beat the price for the CDs. My invoice states they are giving it to me for like 90 pounds. 15 CDs for approx $125 USA is a steal and I grabbed it. I'm sure they already raised the price lol

I have the SACDs from 2002; should I buy these, or not bother ? Thoughts ?

No. So, I ned to be enlightened: what is better 0 SACD or Mono ?I'm confused dot com.
As so often: a matter of taste. I never understood and will never understand what's so great about a mono recording. It sounds limited to me. I prefer any stereo recording a thousand times. But - as I said - it's only my opinion.

Of the 2002 SACD , are these all in stereo or are some in mono?

Aftermath in particular benefits highly when in mono.

Mono for the 60s albums are the way to go. I am looking forward to this, however, the price for the vinyl set is pretty brutal! Any consensus as to if Beggars and Bleed are true mono vs. fold down?

I kinda like the sense of air one gets from the typical 60's stereo separation.
Still, on pre-order on amazon.co.uk a week ago it was cheaper - £80.66 before tax and S&H.

white8, I'm pretty sure (can't say exact) that it's true about the fold downs. I have both albums, unfortunately my LIB has a little bit too much surface noise to tell, but definitely I can hear a difference on SFTD from BB. It's a lot more rich sounding. Though my LIB isn't so great I can agree there is a certain "punchiness" to it. Anyhow, it will be cool to have these records in mint condition with complete retro packaging. Hope the stereo mixes aren't far behind.
