I'm still being abused for daring to question? How thrilling to have such validation.

You've been stitched up like a kipper. A Cornish kipper.
I now believe from this scant evidence relating only to a brief time in their early career, and in a particular geographic area known for wicker men and burning strangers, that every Queen show in history was recorded and is in a suitcase underneath John Deacon's bed. Get with the programme PG. Drink the kool aid...

Jesus....can we all get back on topic here ?
So we now the box will include: A CD, DVD, Bluray and vinyl.
So the question is, will the CD & LP be the same contents. And will the DVD and Bluray be the contents ?

Is it a fact that the set will include just 1 cd, 1 vinyl, 1 blu ray and 1 dvd?

Yep, and now the replies have lost the outer line that characterized them.

Ok.
We just expect the following:
- new documentary on blu-ray and the same content on dvd, maybe a couple extra's
- NOTW on cd
- NOTW on vinyl
- book with already seen pictures and errors

Bluray and DVD in the same box is totally stupid.
I hope they include the 1980s yellow body cassette with the basic raincloud productions inlay. My first Queen purchase.

Hey, some people are claiming Earth is round, can you believe that?
Pffff.

If it turns out that way, they'd better release the DVD/BluRay separately, because there's no chance that I'd fork out for an extra copy of NOTW on cd AND vinyl PLUS a book I'll browse through once.

Agreed.
Let's hope it'll be a bit better than that though.
Going by the past we're in for disappointment so that's why I have come to expect nothing (decent).

Well, I would definitely call a stand-alone release of the Bob Harris documentary "decent", potentially "good" (depending on running time and how well it's been edited). Just not "great". Now, there is the *potential* for a GREAT release, especially considering what kind of material Bob Harris supposedly recorded (concerts concerts concerts!), but like you, I have a hard time getting excited before I know the details, because I've not much faith in QPL. Still, I thought both the Milton Keynes 2DVD and the Rainbow Box were pretty close to great, so we do *occasionally* get a pleasant surprise.

Rainbow was pretty good. It wasn't great because they kept a lot of the old backing vocal overdubs, autotuned Freddie's vocals and compressed the drum sound to shit. Milton Keynes is probably the best product they've done. It wasn't perfect though. Not getting the full ~60 minutes Japan 1982 live in DVD quality just because Freddie's voice wasn't the best at the time was ridiculous.
For this new release, I'm expecting to be disappointed like I've been before.

MK's mixing/remastering is terrible. Awful drum sound. The original broadcast was way better in every aspect. Compare this HS show to the Tokyo 1982 show for example. The latter is far better (for example Action This Day).
Montreal is their best release in terms of sound quality.
