Did you keep the single cd editions too?
I'm wondering wether or not to keep Goo and Dirty or give them as a present (not becuz that would make me save money on "new" presents, eh...) now that I plan to buy the deluxe editions...
stupid question, I know, but wanted to hear your povs.

I kept them. The Goo and Dirty would be the only ones I'd consider parting as DDN holds too much sentimental value. Giving them as gifts isn't a bad idea, though, especially to a dear friend that digs SY

I have the single disc versions to the guy that lives in the apartment below me, because he "never got into" SY. I felt that they were all good entry-drug albums.

That's exactly what I'm thinking right now.
I already decided to keep DDN (even if it sounds pretty bad), Dirty might be the first SY album I bought but I'm not that attached to the object itself... on the other hand, I'm kinda pondering also to try and track down ("collect"?) most of SY (not sideprojects as of now) stuff released on cd...bah..time will tell I guess, and now I kinda regret giving away my single cd copy of WM back when I bought the 2 cds version ha ha... I can change my mind pretty fast, apparently.

Also, the jewel cases are easier to use if you want to pop one in the cd player. The slip cases can get very annoying.

I gave away my single disc version of Washing Machine after I got the 2CD version with the live disc, I gave away a single disc copy of Dirty because I had two and I gave away DDN because I lend it out to someone who moved to another city and when it was on sale I bought a new one and said he could keep it.

But for some reason I didn't give the single discs away after I got the deluxe versions and I don't think I will... even if it's just because the booklets are different or because of some silly sentimental reason.
Of course I have them all on vinyl too and I even picked up a second hand copy of the Blast First CD of DDN just to see if it really sounded different to the Geffen version. Gosh.

Now that you mention it, I don't regret giving away WM, after all it's the very same record... and I loved her, so, yeah....won't ask it back ah ha.
will evaluate on the single cds also becuz at first I wasn't sure about getting the remastered ones coz I kinda "grew accustomed" to the sound of the 1 cd ones... but I really liked the DDN deluxe, with the nice booklet and all, so I decided to buy Dirty and Goo too... tomorrow I'll add a poll with the options and see which one will prevail, ha ha.

The DDN Deluxe sounds the best out of all of them, with Goo being second and Dirty third. The sound on Dirty isn't all that much different (to my ears) just marginally louder. But, I buy them for the bonus tracks mostly.

Yes, DDN sounds better, as does Goo, especially the demos sound much much better. Not sure about Dirty either, plus they cut the intro to Genetic. Bastards.

yep, DDN was the one I bought for the sound improvement (I had the not-at-all-good-sounding geffen cd), while I'll buy the others mainly for the booklets and bonus cds.
I'll visit some online stores soon, ha ha , I'm a happy bunny (<--- see, nef?) tonight.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that! That angered me some, but not alot since I have the 100% single.

kept

they look better on my shelf in chronological order with the single jewel case

at this point i can't listen to the old dirty disc anymore, cause the extra b-side just blend seamlessly into it, that and the destroyed room closes the album better then creme brulee

this thread inspired me to unwrap my single edition Goo, that i got as a gift, that i had never opened because i have the deluxe. i was thinking about returning it or selling it, but now i'm glad i've opened it and decided to keep it

I'm suprised that no one has touched on this:

I've kept all the single disc versions because all of the Deluxe versions have been "hot-mastered". They've all been victims of the loudness war, and I'd rather hear the cd's without compression or limiting .

I gave my single disc versions away. I want to own everything by SY that I possibly can, but I'm not bothered about having duplicate copies.
