2.0 out of 5 stars They want me to buy this AGAIN?, March 2, 2007

By	Gomorrahmy (Suburbia, Earth) - See all my reviews

This is the third distinct edition of this CD to be released in the US. It follows the original, standard release and a "limited edition" version which came with a bonus DVD. This edition contains three songs (two original tracks that have appeared on UK singles and a cover of Kate Bush's "Running Up That Hill" that has already been released on CD several times) and an alternate mix not included on either of the prior versions. It also omits one song from prior editions of the album. In other words, Placebo, or more likely their record label, expect you to pay another $12+ to get another two or three songs and, furthermore, to ensure that you don't simply sell, gift, or trade off your old Meds CD, they've omitted one track so that you (theoretically) need to have copies of at least two editions to get all the tracks. And the RIAA wonders why people "steal" music. Maybe it's because they're tired of being stolen from.

All of this aside, Meds is an excellent album. If you haven't bought (or otherwise obtained) it yet, this edition would appear to be as good as the prior editions (and it does contain more music than the prior single CD version). If you have already bought this album, PLEASE stand up to the RIAA and DO NOT buy it again.

4.0 out of 5 stars Meds is great, but..., June 13, 2009

By	S. Grabosky - See all my reviews

Meds is great, but
BEFORE YOU BUY THIS
be aware that this version of the album omits a lot of the best songs or versions of the songs. The original UK version is by far the best version of Meds.

Try to hunt down a less tampered-with version of the album, if possible.

If your into Placebo, you won't be disappointed with this CD. Great stuff. Vendor was great with delivery, etc., as well. Highly recommend both.
