I think it looks beautiful! What about you people? It is not finally confirmed as the final cover but looks probable.

Nice! Not as good as the original LP version, though. Well, obviously.

I think it looks pretty nice, I mean they had to make a few changes to differentiate from the original. I wonder if it will come with any inserts like the first?

some things should never be changed, including the DSOTM cover, in my opinion

What's wrong with the origional look just slap a 30th anniversary sticker on it and be done.It ain't like a cd and album are the same size.I think I could tell the difference anyway.

I think it gives it a new lease of life and looks rather beautiful. A matt black cover with a beautiful rough texture would have been better though.

Ok, call me a bit thick or whatever, but what's an SACD? If it's just a rere;ease of the cd then why bother? Anyone who wants it will already have it.

No you're right i don't. I hardly doubt anything worth while is ever going to happen in the world of pink floyd when the band pretty much stopped years ago.
Although i will read it now

I don't think the album cover should be changed. The black background contributed to the album's atmosphere.

I'm not quite sure why I like it. There's something... seminal about it. I mean, the original is MORE seminal, obviously, but... blabbum con charlie gone bogus mandate ludolf signia molesti boll. That's why.
