The archive also has to support the rights holders. There's nothing wrong with selling a well made anniversary release.
Nothing wrong with selling it. Give the audience something worth talking about when the wrapping comes off.
An anniversary release with something I haven't heard is an easy yes. I don't need the same album in another box.
And the new material should get a real listen. Reverence can become a way of avoiding any actual discussion.
