If you already own the original release, just get the single-disc with the new transfer. Absolutely buy the new 3-disc set if the original isn't in your library. But if you don't own the original 3-disc set in the first place...what's wrong?

I would have expected a better cover for Double Life (it's not bad, mind you), but I'll still buy it the day it comes out.

I will have to agree with you on that. Especially the typography really bothers me.
