Oh. I keep wanting to bring up whether it's appropriate to have the Beatles box sets merged, since to me it seems like a number of distinct albums released together, rather than one monumental release. And I think there needs to be some sort of separation between that kind of phenomenon and, say, Neil Young's Decade, which is a two-disc monolithic release.
