This was long overdue. Obviously don't expect FS to have anything to do with this..
The positives:
- hopefully the sound qualty is improved with respect to previous cd releases;
- presence of bonus tracks. I believe this will consist of extra versions of the title track, like the extended one or the movie cut. What do you think?

I've never known of an extended version of EOTT. You're not referring to the demo that was used in Rocky III, are you?

Haven't had the chance to hear it yet, but I'm going through the booklet interviews to see if there's some curious info.
As soon as possible I will give you my opinion on the sonic aspect of this release

I just ordered my copy a couple of days ago. How long did it take for you to receive it from the time you ordered it?
Please do let us know what you think of the sound quality. Also, how extended is the extended version of the EOTT song?

Well, it's like night and day here. The reissue is very well done, it gives more breath to each instrument. It's louder but in the right way, not embarassing for the ear. In particular I feel that the backing vocals have really benefited from this remastering ("Feels like love" for instance). It's like lifting up a veil that was covering the songs.
It's pure listening pleasure. Finally.

I got my copy a week or two after you got yours. I'm happy with the overall sound. It's a definite improvement in many ways.
