someone on The Prodigy forums were calling the release a rip off
i don't understand how anyone could call this a rip off
if you own the album and don't care about the remixes, then don't buy it
for those who don't already own the album or wanna buy it for their collection or just wanna support the release and buy it either way, then well they're going to buy it
how can something be considered a rip off if you have no plans on buying it in the first place?
who exactly is being ripped off?
no one is forcing anyone to buy it
could the release have been better? sure
but calling it a rip off seems silly
XL's site is selling it for only $14... a double disc at $14 is not much of a rip off
so i'm not sure who is being ripped off
Amazon specifically changed the title from "Expanded Edition" to "Reissue"
so i think that tells you something...
this is not meant to be an Expanded Edition like Experience and Jilted re-releases.
just a simple reissue with some extra remixes

I don't own a CD of the album, so I am buying the reissue. Are you guys whining just because this isn't an expanded release? Wait another 5 years then, give up!

I think it's the disappointment... when Liam was like "hey fans, we're re-releasing FOTL with added fat" I was excited, and then when it turned out to be remixes, for someone who doesn't like those too much - it was quite a disappointment. For example, added fat could have been b-sides from that era.
So you're right saying that calling it a rip off is not correct (because I just don't have to buy it, and I won't) but just replace "rip off" with "disappointment".

they've all gone lazy as shit... remember IMD singles? only remixes (with the exeption of Mescaline, but I guess without the good response it would've never got released)
