I also received my replacement disc (Jane Eyre) this week which plays fine. What exactly was wrong with the first one?
Last minute of last track sounded like it had an LP scratch; a repetitive loud thunking sound. I knew the recording should have sounded perfect (I have two other sources of the music). But there was no visual defect, and the track copied fine in a PC. Anyway, it was just my specific cd that had the problem. Since that was cd #1, I felt compelled to play the other 13 discs ASAP to make sure there were no other issues. Turned into a drag to have to crank thru them just to make sure there were no anomalies.
There's an entry at Amazon for The Day the Earth Stood Still, available on CD-R and mp3, with a nearly identical tracklist from the Fox box, but the product details mention that it was released a year prior to the box and was issued by Red Bitch Music. Is this legitimate?

With a name like Red Bitch Music... do you really have to ask?
Sounds to me like they copied the 24k gold CD that came with The Day the Earth Stood Still limited edition Laserdisc box set that came out back in '95. I've got that one and it has the same 20 tracks which include the 2 studio session rehearsal and outtake tracks.

Unless it was named Blue Balls Tunes, I was willing to give it the benefit of the extreme doubt.

Okedoke, thanks much.
Thing is, this "label" also has a few FSM mp3 entries as well. Lukas may not be a happy camper about this.
Jane Eyre, Five Fingers, King of the Khyber Rifles, The Egyptian (a surprisingly integral listening experience without Newman's cues) and The Snows of Kilimanjaro have gotten even more play.
Jane Eyre has ended up being my favorite, though I never would have predicted it going in.
Least favorite: Tender is the Night – even with some beautiful cues. IT'S THAT SONG – UGH!!!!!!!!
