I can't answer your question, but since you brought up the new release...
I've been wondering what the deal is with the Deluxe Edition.
It's $40 list and I was going to order it at Amazon as the price was about
$23. A few days before release it said unavailable.
I didn't know if this was due to the cheap price and being sold out or
something else. Now Amazon shows people trying to sell copies second hand
for $73-150.
Did it sell out immediately? Will more be coming out?
Should I be looking at a TW fan/official site f/more info?

Has anyone experimented this?
Some recently manufactured american cd’s are having finishing problems.
A friend bought the new Travelling Wilburys collection cd/dvd box, and
his copy is a clear example of that. On the external edge of the audio
discs, just where the ‘silver’ part ends – close to the transparent
plastic edge – the silver part has imperfections. As if it was not
‘glued’ perfectly well. This is the third or fourth different cd I see
with this problem. It doesn’t affect playing and you have to look close
to notice (it’s on the label side, not on the playing side). But I think
it shouldn’t happen.
Picky customers are starting to complain. Although cd prices may seem
relatively cheap if compared to the absurd downloading costs, it’s
undeniably an old technology and should cost less. But nothing justifies
bad manufacturing standards.
