NEVER did they say the CDs would be numbered. The idea of the "limited
edition" set was that the b-sides CD would be available for one week only.
But now Polygram has decided to make more available. Who gives a toss? I
think it's great that whoever wants the b-sides CD will be able to buy a
copy. I wouldn't mind betting the people complaining about Polygram going
back on its word bought multiple copies hoping to make a quick buck when
demand outstripped supply. Well, those people got caught out and tough luck!

>Small observation......my (I live in Oz) Best Of copy has a sticker on it
>that says "SPECIAL EDITION DOUBLE CD"....the word *limited* does
>not appear anywhere...

Same with the New Zealand CDs
