DSOTM Crystal Clear Vinyl Box

[NuffM]

Another year, another ginormous cash grab. That's just how the cookie crumbles, it seems. Sigh...

Not cheap, but I would love a copy but not at that price.

How "limited" is really "limited"?

And why is it split in just 2 records, and not in four 45RPM single-sided records with four UV etched artworks ? They could charge fans at least $350 for such set. And sell the poster separately for another $50 to make it an even better deal. Or make it a 10-record set with each containing a song, fans will surely still buy it, right?

It’s pretty neat but I’ll hold out for them releasing a 1972 show …. one day … maybe, please!

So did they make a load more stuff for the 50th box that didn't go in? Didn't finish in time? Was getting too expensive they knew it would hardly sell?

I think I'm starting to understand what motivated Roger when he recorded his last year's version of DSOTM

[A Prick Like You]

I think it looks good. Not buying it at that price, but it’s a good design.

I can't wait for the 2025 holographic vinyl release of Dark Side of The Moon! Oh and can't forget the augmented reality release in 2026!

Like, really now Pink Floyd management? How the hell did this get approved by ANY of the surviving members?

Because Gilmour loves money. 🤣

Pre ordered it today.
Seriously, what kind of fan complains about a collectible release ? Nobody is making you buy it. Young, new fans might like it.

The kind of fan who, like me, already owns 19 versions of the album in several formats and see nothing interesting in the collectible aspect besides the gimmick (whose novelty value will fade after a couple spins) except, perhaps, to pass down to my descendants for them to get some very big money in 50 years when collectors pay crazy prices for it, by which time I'll be long gone and won't be able to care or enjoy it.

I know no-one is making me buy it. And I won't. Same as I didn't buy the overrated and overpriced boxset from last year for pretty much the same reason.

Besides, it's pink Floyd, which usually warrants there will be some kind of mistake or let down during production of the physical object itself.

Young, new fans might like it.

They might like it. No doubt about it. Now we need to find a young new fan with enough disposable income willing to spend on a collectible like this instead of some kind of digital entertainment. Not saying there aren't, but I doubt this is directly aimed at that specific demographics.



edit:
Now, if this isn't sold out within 10 days, then I'll start thinking it really isn't "limited" at all.

This is a fan site ? lol

The 50th of WYWH is coming up next year, it will be interesting to see the material they release for that.

One side of each disc is just artwork that is visible on the playable side. Future release will be 10 discs (one for each song) with the same design. 😉
