 I don’t understand for the life of me why the Stones would put out two differant versions of the album. The only people who will be picking this up are the diehard Rolling Stones fans, and they’re going to want a complete show.

For you tech savvy folks, you’ll also be able to buy the album via a USB key that looks something like this:

    i’m thinking the USB … if only for the novelty

    Not sure I would really by either. I am very much looking forward to the film, but for the love of god, how many versions of some of these tunes do we really need? Originals, reissues, live, accoustic, greatest hits…enough already. How much more cash can these guys squeeze out of people for their catalogue? Looks like either $10 or $15 depending on which version of the soundtrack you get.
