I tend to agree... I think that box set was pretty poorly assembled, all 
things considered. It also clearly didn't know its audience--was it a fan 
box, or a greatest hits set? It tried too hard to be everything to everyone, 
and the pacing is absolutely horrible. I sold it years ago, and wouldn't 
recommend it to anyone who isn't a die-hard and wants the booklet and 
rarities. --Jason
