Michael 2010 album without fake songs?

10 years later they released the album without the fakes
without even admitting guilt in the slightest

Sony Music also removed these 3 fake songs from streaming services, such as Spotify and Apple Music.

According to reports, Sony Music stated at one point that they were duped by 2 producers (Eddie Cascio and James Porte) regarding these 3 fake songs.
 
They should've replaced the fakes with original versions of Throwing Your Life Away, Buffalo Bill and Chicago 1945.
That would have only been fair to the millions of people who bought the fakes.
 
I keep away from the re-release as I expect, some risk, that the mastering sound worse, more brick-walled etc.
But, can anyone confirm if that's the case?

(Also I don't mind just skipping the given tracks or removing some files...)

The mastering is the same on streaming services at least. I don't see why the physical release would be different.

Because it seems to be a principle to make things louder with re-releases... In example, on streaming services.
I'd like comparison with the 2010 CD.
 
Yeah, I don't buy re-releases because they always sound worse than the version I already have.

I'm not sure why anybody would want 2 copies of Michael.

You're right, but their laziness would make them prefer to work the bare minimum and just slap the old copy/mastering on a new disc and profit from it once more.

Well, if there's something the industry has never been lazy about, it's ruining existing works by "remastering"...
But it's true, if they did, they would have advertised it as "remastered" (hear it like you never heard it !).

Now, someone who had the occasion to compare and who I would tend to trust regarding audio stuff told me the MJ songs are the same as on original release, they only shortened some silence (I guess after fade out or such).
 
Well I
