Overall I think the set is worth the $43 at CDnow.com. If you don't have a best of this is the most thorough set and the sound quality is good. It is digitally remastered which can mean trouble for lps but in this case it wasn't so bad. If you already have all the Pink Floyd lps, then you may not want to purchase the set That is unless you want to experience the resequencing of songs. I haven't listened all the way through my set yet but I like the new sequencing as a different experience and am satisfied with the sound quality overall.

I thought about getting the vinyl set a few months ago as a pre-order but then I decided no on it. I have the all of their stuff (in different pressings) on vinyl. If I want to hear the sequencing, I'll just get the "cheaper" cd...
