01.02.2008 : Thriller 25th Anniversary Edition
Thriller 25 is out February 11th and is available for pre-order now. All formats include the original album plus groundbreaking videos, the superstar remixes AND an unreleased track from the Thriller sessions.

There are 4 physical formats:

Classic cover
Zombie cover
Special Edition Hardback cover with expanded booklet
2 x LP

There are also digital editions and iTunes exclusive tracks

thanks for clarifying this - I got the "hardbook" edition or something, which I assume to be the "hardback" edition. I might also get the LP version.
 
This is all so weird and confusing, I think they're making a mistake by having so many different versions.
Theres 4 standard versions, then there's Japanese version, amazon apparently have exclusive video with theirs, TARGET apparently have an exclusive download, and now itunes have exclusive download. Then there's all the different names; like Deluxe and super-deluxe, and hardback cover... etc.

They should have kept it simple... one album, any extra downloads available separately online everywhere.

That's how they make their money. They expect people to buy the standard version and then see that there's a track they really want but don't have on the iTunes version so they buy it as well, then they buy it from Target to get the exclusive tracks they have and then they import a copy from Japan so they can get the Japanese exclusive track. So at the end of the day you have some people buying 3 or 4 versions of Thriller 25 so they can get all the exclusive tracks. That's the plan anyway.
