maybe people judged too soon and it was all just a typo.....

That's my main gripe really having seen the contents...if the boxset really has all 38 singles...then it's not bad value, relatively. If it has what it seems to be advertising...not so much.

Even if it IS proper CD singles with b-sides, will this include b-sides that were only on vinyl, cassette and DVD?

I think I would quite happily pay £165 to have The Vorticists on a CD, mainly because I am slightly retarded.

Aren't these supposed to be vinyl style CD Singles? What's the betting that means one A-side and one B-Side per disc. No chance in hell they'll be say, 7 or 8 track CD singles.

The way things are going...the rarest one would be a copy with no freebie, no poster and no signature!

The Manic Street Preachers fan smiles. He thinks the Manic Street Preachers marketing executive is his friend. The Manic Street Preachers marketing executive smiles. He has gained the trust of the Manic Street Preachers fan. Now he can exploit him! *

More variations than Justin Bieber single....please stop!

By vinyl style, I think they just mean they'll look like mini records, i.e. this:



Probably also means they'll put them in cardboard sleeves rather than plastic boxes.

So while there's still a chance that they're going to fuck this up by not putting any or all of the b-sides on the singles, I wouldn't take the vinyl-style description as the reasoning.

They've also removed the detail about the 'poster' being 7 inches. At least they're ashamed of it now.
