The Definitive Nine Inch Nails: The Remixes

~ Release by Nine Inch Nails (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

A compilation album featuring 19 of NIN's most different remixes spanning their entire 18 year history. A good way to get acquainted with a side of the band many people are unfamiliar with. This is an homage that completes their three-piece "Best Of" collection.

Unlike the others in the Definitive leaked series, this one is fan-made, not released by the band, which is why it does not have an official SEED XX number (SEED 05 is printed on the artwork, but is not valid).

From Echoing the Sound:
Picture differences:
print resolution is 300dpi for "quiet tracks"
but only 96dpi for "remixes"
and the properties for "quiet tracks" include the creation software, whereas "remixes" doesn't

Mp3 differences:
track from "quiet" say "x/19", "remixes" doesn't
"quiet" has id3v2 only, "remixes" has both id3v1 and id3v2
"quiet" says encoded with "iTunes v6.0.3", "remixes" is encoded with LAME 3.92
"quiet" contains what appears to be a checksum in the comments feild, "remixes" doesn't
"remixes" contains "publisher" information, which "quiet" doesn't
