Edited 9 months agoI can't speak for all of the digital discs because I haven't played them yet. I bought this set for the double 45 vinyl. I know that is a ridiculously amount of coin to spend on one album but the audio quality of the lps are fantastic. Some say they can't tell the difference between 45 and 33 1/3 but my ears can. And if buying this set is the only way to acquire it then I'm in. I've got the Tales, Eye In The Sky and Ammonia Avenue box sets too and have been very happy with those also. Besides all the discs you do get a beautiful hardcover book with lots of interesting facts and photos along with a full size poster. The Alan Parsons Project has been a #1 band for me since at least the mid eighties, have seen them live going on 5 times now and that's why I don't hesitate buying these glorified box sets.
