Mislead on Vinyl?

I was very dissapointed that my brand new $140.00 super delux edition had the "6 new tracks" only on the CD. Did I miss something somewhere? Did my vinyl come incomplete...Why does the CD include these tracks and not the vinyl? I actually wanted Just a girl, Breath, and SOLAT on vinyl, one of the main reasons I bought this.

I definetly feel mislead on this one.

    Well if you are familiar w/vinyl, you know they can only fit an hour total on one vinyl. Those extra songs on the CD would never fit on one vinyl. Personally i don't mind but I see you're point on being misled.

    They were listed as "Bonus Tracks" in the box set details. The only difference between "Ten" and "Ten [Remixed]" is the production by O'Brien. The box set included Ten and Ten [Remixed] on vinyl - and the bonus tracks aren't a part of Ten, they're exactly what 10c listed them as - bonus tracks; an incentive for people to rebuy an 18 year old album. Nothing misleading about it.

    I guess you are correct....but they are on my "remixed" CD, why not my "remixed" vinyl. I didnt receive an addtional CD that was labeled "Bonus Tracks", as they were described. Live and learn I guess.

    I will definetly be more careful on future re-issues.

    We knew this all along.

    The extra songs would not fit on the vinyl. They would have had to make the Ten redux a double vinyl to fit the bonus tracks; which would have been rather lame anyways as you would only have a side A and no side B.

    There's not enough run time left on the Ten vinyl to fit 6 more tracks, so they'd have to add an additional LP. CD's longer runtime means they could add the tracks on there and save some money by not manufacturing an additional disc/artwork/etc.

    I didn't realize this either, but I don't feel mislead really ... I just feel like I misunderstood the description. Everyone's explanations certainly make sense. And at least I get to listen to the xtra tracks on the CD. :?

    I completely understand the limitations on vinyl. I guess I just didnt put two and two together, as far as only an A side, you could have put three songs on each side. Or 4 and 2, or 5 and 1....lots of album only have one song on the B side. S/T only has Inside Job and Drop in the Park only has Porch. Wouldnt have been lame at all. I guess I misunderstood, rather than was mislead. Dont get me wrong its still an awesome box set and it will get lots of playtime.

    Peace

    ditto, i never thought about it, and was a slight bit disappointed, but overall im happy.

    i wouldnt listen to the bonus tracks as part of the album anyway i guess....i see them as add ons.

    if it were a Binaural reissue with songs like Fatal, Sad, Moonlight etc featuring in a rearranged album tracklist, then maybe id be pissed if they were left off, but its ok as it is. New Ten, and Classic Ten.

    I do not see why they could not have added another "bounus" LP with the extra tracks?

    shit the box set has everything else

    The bonus tracks aren't on the Vinyl? That is bullshit!!! I can burn a CD and add the bonus tracks for free, I have not figured out yet how to make my own LP's. That is one of the reasons I bought it.

    Sure they could have, but they didn't want to. They're damned if they do and damned if they don't anyway - if there was an lp for the bonus tracks we'd have 100 people up in arms saying it's not necessary and just made it more expensive. Or for some other dumb reason.

    It's kind of sad that people just want more, more, more. Look at all the awesome stuff they went out of their way to include in this package. And despite all that cool stuff people still have the balls to say we should have gotten 2 copies of BONUS tracks? Unbelievable
