Maybe it's back on the burner again.
I do remember that was the original announcement. The entire collection.
But.. that was 2004, right? It has been almost 7 years. Kabosh or not, nowadays the CDs market has changed a lot. Stores are closing, used CDs are a growing option, there are MP3 downloads, Itunes, etc. I don't think this would be a good idea in commercial terms.

For us the fans, we would love it. Specially because the Mirage CD sound sucks. We need a remastered. And of course there are the bonus tracks, new pictures, etc. But I don't think it would be a finnancial success. And I guess that was the main reason they didn't follow after the 3 releases.

Unless they sell it thru Itunes or any new alternative. But even so I'm not sure it will make it.

I guess it just a rumour.
