  This is a great collectors item for any Nirvana fan. What it contains: Case that holds everything with a clear image of the front cover Poster Huge book 5 CDs The case is very cool, and seems like it would be a good thing to protect everything inside. The poster is only on one side, which includes a photo of the three of them, and the other side is a few magazine scans. The booklet, which is about 12x12 (size of a vinyl case) is awesome. I think it is about 90 pages and includes a biography, single info, video info, and many pictures. In the back of the book, there is lyrics to every song (off of Nevermind). In the last page, there are liner notes which contain the CD holders. The CDs are secure in it, and would not seem to fall out. The CDs contain: Newly remastered Nevermind album (which sounds GREAT, by the way) All the B-sides off of the album Early sessions Alternate mixes BBC sessions Live at the Paramount CD Live at the Paramount DVD All of the CD tracks add up to 70 total, while the DVD includes the 19 set concert and four music videos. This is a great set that every Nirvana fan should have. The only thing that might hold you back is the price.

  Amazing!

  I was worried about the price when I bough this boxset but was pleasantly surprised when I opened it. Despite it not coming with any memorabilia or bluray dicss justifying the steep price, the presentation is AMAZING. The book is gorgeous and contains everything you can imagine: pics, lyrics, stories, press reviews, internal documents from the label, etc, etc. The book alone could be worth the money, or is close enough. The 1st two discs are great but also available in other editions. Two of the other discs (1CD & 1DVD) are the Paramount concert which is AMAZING but also available elsewhere, even in bluray (why didn't the box include a bluray???). It is nice that the box comes with a CD copy of it, though. The remaining disc is exclusive to this box, which is a preliminary remix of the album by Butch Vig, very interesting, but fairly similar to the final mix. While it definitively gives a good insight on the creation process of the album, I found the material on the 1st two discs more appealing. Overall, I think the price is still a little bit high, but if you can afford it, it's worth the investment. It is nice to get such a great presentation for such a great album!

  Love Nirvana, a bit expensive though

  This product is great for an obsessed Nirvana fan like myself, I have been eagerly waiting for more unreleased material and this is great for that. Unfortunately some of the songs have already been released in other box sets (WTLO, Sliver the Best of the Box). What's great about this product however is the 90 page booklet as well as the previously unreleased Live at the Paramount concert in its entirety. Say what you may about Nirvana but this is a great tribute to such an iconic album.
