I bought the DVD-Audio version of this in the early 2000s for the DTS surround sound mix, and it's still one of the best 5.1 albums I've ever heard. I'm glad others who missed that release will get to hear it via this box set. I hope the price comes down as I would love to get the bonus material, but can't justify spending $100 on this set. Of course I may change my mind as the release date nears, as I said the same thing about the latest Pink Floyd box set and it's currently sitting in front of me.

Emailed today from Burning Shed:
Hi,
Thanks very much for buying this deluxe edition of one of PT’s classic albums from us.
We have been made aware of an unfortunate mistake on the Blu-ray disc. It should have included the audio from CD2 in high resolution (24/96) but those tracks/files are not there.
Obviously we are eager for you to have a complete Blu-Ray disc but this is going to take a few weeks as a new master and manufacturing will take time.
The “good” part is that you don’t have to do anything. We will automatically send a replacement Blu-ray to everyone who has bought this from us.
Kscope are sorry for this mishap but please rest assured it will all be ok - you’re in good hands.
We will email you again when the discs are about to be shipped.
Please note that all replacement discs will be sent by standard mail without tracking. We won’t be sending any discs by courier.
Anyone who bought the deluxe edition from other sellers will need to contact Kscope directly about getting a replacement disc. Watch their social media accounts for more information.

Got my deluxe set today and the box looked like it had been in a fight as it traveled over from Europe. Luckily it was double boxed so my set is fine. Gorgeous packaging but I won’t get a chance to listen till later.

Got another email today from Burning Shed, the corrected Blu-rays are now in stock and will go out automatically soon, they will also replace any sets on hand with the corrected version. I will assume patience will be the key as it will take some time for the discs to arrive in North America.
People not on the automatic mailing list should make sure they have contacted K-Scope to make sure they get their corrected Blu-Rays.

According to Burning Shed on Twitter the new discs have been manufactured and they should be able to send replacement discs and new corrected boxsets in a week or two.
My initial email from K Scope mentioned discs in April but delays have moved it to now late April/ early May. The pandemic has screwed everything up but I am confident I will eventually get the replacement disc.
