I believe I copied everything correctly!
If you are a fan, what more could you ask for (other than money for all this)? This is incredible. I will have to search for the best price (it may actually just be direct from their site), and do this very, very slowly. Man-this came out of nowhere. I thought they were going to keep doing things slowly-guess not!
There is a bundle price for the whole thing as a box at a reduced rate and in a rare show of class and considertaion for fans-you do not have to repurchase the Icehouse/Flowers remaster (which I still have to get as well!).
Here's where to go...

For $150 AU you can have the lot.
I am hoping the price will drop before I take the plunge.

Just FYI, the bonus tracks on all the CDs are exactly the same as the Icehouse remasters released by Warner in 2002. The only difference I see is on The Berlin Tapes... "Being Boiled" from the 02 remaster has been removed and replaced by "Heroes (Athens Mix)."

Even though the content is the same, I'm glad these are coming out because the 02 remasters have become VERY expensive on the secondary market.

The live tracks and DVDs weren't part of those were they? I knew about the other bonus tracks being the same.

The content of the CDs is exactly the same, including the live tracks. The only change is the one track on Berlin Tapes, as mentioned above. Yes, Primitive Man and Man of Colours now come with new DVDs, but the audio tracks on those CDs are the same as the previous remasters.

i purchased "measure for measure" and "the berlin tapes"
when these remasters were first released.
originally, there was a static "pop" on or near the Lou Reed cover,
but it was corrected, so nobody should worry about that.
and although i have friends who call me a Remaster Whore,
at least i try to be objective about the sound quality.
and... the remastered sound quality on this series is quite nice!
not too shrill, bright, compressed, or loud... just right, IMHO.
