I had a look but could not find a discussion about this. Is it worth getting? I had read that there were some mistakes made with the vocal and vocoder tracks, can anyone advise what the "problems" are, or whether it's simply a matter of taste?

It's very nice and clear. It definitely sounds cleaner than the original mix and certain elements, especially Rick's keyboard and synth parts, are more pronounced. However, I feel the change in drum sound is too extreme in certain places. The snare in Pigs and Sheep is ridiculous and sounds more like it belongs in the 80's in my opinion. I also hate the middle section of Sheep where you can hear a lot more fret buzz which was kind of covered up in the original.
The original mix still reigns supreme to me. The Blu Ray is definitely worth having for the 24/96 of the original mix and the 5.1 mix which is just cool.

Echoing all of the above - it's a matter of taste but I largely enjoyed the new mix. I I found Pigs (3DO) to be the highlight. Dogs is a neat alternative mix but nothing too special. Sheep is my least favorite as it has a few moments where things are a little too clear and distinct to the point of being a distraction.
All in all it's worth the listen, though - it's a worthy companion to the original mix.
